Now for the nitty-gritty of WIPocalypse: all those projects I vowed to work on this year. As I said in my earlier post, I don’t make timelines to finish most projects, but there are a few I’ve been working on for a while that I should be able to finish this year without putting myself out too much. I do like to have a few goals, just don’t want to put so much pressure on myself that I don’t enjoy the journey.
So, let’s see what progress I’ve made, given I haven’t been paying attention to the list I made in January, lol.

/ February 18, 2015Hope you finish the gloves soon. I find it really helps to have smaller projects to go to when I’m working on a large project, and a throw of knitted squares definitely qualifies as a large project. 🙂

/ February 18, 2015Thanks! I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t write it down. Sleeping Beauty is on a greyish blue from Wichelt, but I don’t remember the fabric I am using for Mermaids of the Deep Blue. It’s probably a Picture This Plus fabric, like a very blue midnight blue color.
