Really, I’m not sure. I’ve got three sock projects on the needles, one set of mittens, and a sweater vest for my DH, and I need to cast on some socks for a swap. I also need to figure out which yarn and pattern I want to use for the swap sock. I’m thinking some more of the handpaint I’m using for the Rivendell sock, or maybe some Dream in Color Smooshy…and a Cookie A pattern I like. Nothing like making something for someone else as an excuse to go yarn-and-pattern shopping! My swap partner likes the same sorts of colors I do, so that makes it even more fun!
I’ve been spinning, too. I’m spinning up the Alpine Sunset I got from Alpine Meadows Fibers into something for a shawl. Then, before I knit the shawl, but after I finish the spinning, I’ll spin the gorgeous red-with-angelina-sparkles yarn my mom chose for a shawl. I’ll get it spun and then knitted, so that she can have it.
After that, it will be time to spin up the Monkey Farts roving I got from Spunky Eclectic, so that we can have nice new University of Wyoming colorway hats for football season. Yeah!
I’ll need to add some photos next time.

OMG! This is great–I always wished you had a knitting blog. (I know, it sounds weird, but I kind of did…what can I say?)
Congrats and I can’t wait to read more. Wow, lots of stuff on the needles, huh? Can’t wait to see some!

I squashed all my stuff into one often ignored blog.
Take some pretty pictures of the yarn you’re spinning.
