So we've reached the 4 month mark in this Year of Projects now. One third complete. So, theoretically, I should have hit 33% completion on my list, right?
Lets take a look:
Knit Projects:
1. Easy Lace Stole - in progress, but currently in time out because of snapped yarn. Probably about a third complete.
2. Thinking of You scarf - completed
3. Victorian Scarf - completed
4. Hypernova - in progress, making steady progress too, as this is my train knitting.

| I get about five rows done on the way to work, and about three or four done on the way home each day. Slow but steady growth. |
5. Sojourn Falls scarf - not started. Yarn in stash, still need to order seed beads and get a cable needle.
6. 198yds of heaven - not started. Yarn in stash.
7. Ribbed Lace Bolero - not started. Have just bought some Rowan Calmer from a Ravelry destash which should be perfect for it.
8. Eleonora - not started. Yarn not chosen yet.
9. Leafy Fingerless Gloves - in progress. Maybe a quarter to a third through the first glove.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, I have finished more crochet projects than knitting projects at this stage. Crochet is, after all, faster. Even though my finished percentage is only 24%, if you add in the in progress stuff that pushes it up to over a third, so I guess I am pretty on target. Quite a few of the up-coming crochet projects are going to be quick ones, as will a couple of the chunkier knit projects. Once you take into account the fact I have other WIPs on the go as well, and not unlimited time, I think I'm doing pretty well!
I think a 24% completion rate is pretty good, especially since half your projects are either started or WIPs
ReplyDeleteLooks like your right on track, That's awesome. And I love the purple yarn. Super pretty.
ReplyDeleteI think you are doing pretty well too!
ReplyDeleteThe hyper nova is so pretty, steady progress is the stuff that creeps up on you and says 'I'm finished' before you notice it.
Happy crafting this week!
I haven't dared do the maths on mine yet - yours is very impressive! All your projects are so pretty.
ReplyDeletehypernova is looking lovely! And what is that crochet creation? *runs off to hunt you down on ravelry*
ReplyDeleteAll your projects are so lovely! I can't believe we are 1/3 of the way through already. Time just really needs to slow down. I better get busy. :)
ReplyDeleteI think you're doing pretty well too. Had to smile re your train knitting. If you can get 5 rows done on the way to work and 3-4 on the way home, all I can say is I think you're working way too hard AT work !! Slow down girl, take it easy, then you'll be able to get 5 done on the way home too :)
ReplyDeleteYour project photos are looking great the Hypernova is fab and such gorgeous green yarn. I tend to use a stray dpn as a cable needle, saves buying extra stuff
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed with your progress :) The leafy fingerless gloves are looking amazing already (I've never knit anything more complicated than rib on DPNs, so I'm doubly impressed!)
ReplyDeleteHehe sadly it's not a case of being too tired, it's a time issue. The train in the morning sits at the station for maybe five minutes before leaving, and sits outside the station for five minutes before arriving. The train home is a lot quicker and far busier.
ReplyDeleteOoh good idea. And now I have DPNs to spare which I can use.
ReplyDeleteThe green is lovely, isn't it. My readers chose well :)
It's no trickier than just doing rib. It helps that the pattern is confined to one needle. The other two are just rib, so you kind of get to relax a bit between pattern rows!
ReplyDeleteYou've got a lot more done than I. You're doing so well.
ReplyDeleteMy will be sad as I'll try to post about it today.
