I’m back up to 10 WIPs. Did you notice how I tried to slide that piece of information right by you? Buried right under a big pile of stash acquisition! LOL! Knitter’s guilt, I tell ya…I think I might have to do a destash — for real. In the fall, I think.
For now, I’m assuaging my knitter’s guilt by giving one of the older WIPs some long overdue love. My Rockefeller. Here’s what it looked like, last you saw…
I still really like this photo. It doesn’t bother me that it’s been hanging out on my Ravelry page, right at the top for over a year. LOL. I would really like to wear this though. The yarn is Jade Sapphire’s Sylph — a cashmere-linen blend! Yummy!
The only bits left to knit are a process knitter’s dream, row after row of striped garter stitch. There should not be a hangup here.
Finger’s crossed that Knitter’s Guilt keeps me motivated!
I’ve also started and nearly finished another cowl with the yarn that shall not be named.
Even though it’s not totally finished, the knitting is done so really, I’m down to 9 WIPs.
I’ll try not to cast on anything new. I’m still pretty enamored with my Speckled, Faded, Dotted Rays, so it shouldn’t be too hard!
Despite frequent use of #beerandknitting, the knitting is pretty outstanding!
I’m going to start fading color #3 tonight!! Guilt Free!
Come back tomorrow to see my Surpreyes Bag from Stephen! Not only has it already arrived but it’s awesome!!
Love the range of colours you have on the go!

Hooray I’m not the only one with WIPs in double figures! The cowl does look lovely, despite the awkward yarn :)

It’s a test of patience but the colors are quite lovely. And the balls are surprisingly large. Only one skein in each of the cowls I’ve made so far.

Of course, the reality is, only a few of them area actually being worked on. Mostly, I give myself a limit so I don’t go crazy and have WIP after WIP but nothing ever gets finished.
