What: Peacock Feather Beaded Scarf
Needs: TO BE FOUND. It's this tiny little ball of merino on tiny circular needles in a tiny bag, and it's lost. I'm hoping I'll find it, but it's really, truly possible that I may not.
Expected Time: Approximately 50-80 hours. It's superfine mohair, with beads. That's gonna slow ANYONE down.
What: Dragon Illusion Blanket
Needs: The Second Half Finished
Expected Time: Approximately 100-200 hours. Seriously. One "row" is actually four rows, each with (I think) over 250 stiches, and, it being a blanket, it's heavy. Really, really heavy. So it takes some doing.
What: Hello Kitty Illusion Scarf
Needs: Finish final HK block; carefully line up and sew back and front together, add fringe
Expected Time: Approximately five to six hours
What: "Block Eight" Castle Block
Needs: FINISHED 12/31/2010
Expected Time: N/A
What: Unfinished Serpentine Valentine Socks (was going to be November CoMC)
Needs:UNRAVELED 12/31/2010 - they just weren't working. Cankles and too-tight cast on!
Expected Time: N/A
What: Hearts Pi Shawl
Needs: A LOT. Like, TONS of stitches. Thousands and thousands of stitches. On little eensy-tiny needles, yet!
Expected Time: 200+ hours.
What: Advent Calendar Scarf
Needs: A LOT. Like, TONS of stitches. Thousands and thousands of stitches. On little eensy-tiny needles, yet!
Expected Time: 200+ hours.
You'll note, please, that there aren't ANY left-from-previous-years crocheted UFOs - I tend to finish my crochet projects. Mostly because they're far, far less grand in scope than my knitting!
And speaking of crochet projects - HPKCHC classes dropped on Saturday, so I started Charms. The assignment was to stalk a First Year student, find something in their batch of finished projects, and make one of them. The Hufflepuff I stalked had done a granny square baby blanket; since I've got a baby shower to attend in about two weeks, I opted for that. I just decided to make it a little, well, cooler than the average baby blanket. This is a granny square - WITH FLAMES. I've gone through one skein of black yarn and one yellow that this point; I need more yellow, and will probably pick up a second red while I'm at it.
I've also put in one OWL proposal, and started a second class. Also WITH FLAMES. (That's my January theme - make everything WITH FLAMES.) So, right now, I started the year with 38 WIPs, and right now, I'm at 40. That totally rocks!!!
