Quick update

Exciting times in my life right now, I just have so many projects going, I don't have time to take photos or write about them all. I am part of many knit-alongs (KAL's), and trying to keep up with all of those has kept me very busy lately.

I am participating in a year-long dishcloth challenge (I am working on 1 a week, generally), I did a shawl make-along (completed, but ends not woven in), and I have so much yarn I'm saving for sweater-making this fall. If last year was the "Year of Doing," this year is the "Year of Buying." I've purchased (and won!) my first skeins of hand-dyed yarn, indie-dyed yarn, and all of it is wool! I never thought I would let myself spend that kind of money on yarn, but I've let the envy bug get the best of me. Now I have far more yarn than I could ever use in a reasonable amount of time, so I need to stop buying again.

Here is just a taste of all the projects I need to work on in most of my crafts (i.e., supplies I have that I need to use!):
