I am addicted to Lizard Ridge. I've just started block 3, but I keep secretly acquiring balls of Kureyon. I think it's becoming a problem.

Also on the go is a pair of Uh-ohs, which I have a fanciful idea of knitting a load of for the babies in the family. If only I could leave Lizard Ridge alone for a moment and get on with it.

What are you working on?

A washcloth for my sil but I am tempted to try my hand at knitty's travelling shawl next.

I only have one needle as I crochet, not knit, but I am making snowflakes.

I have been trying all week to get a pattern right for a little cardigan for three ragsolls I have made for Christmas presents. Last night I finally got the size, shape &.partern right and I'm really pleased with it. Now just have to make two more!

Well done Katy! I've just finished a hat for my eldest, now to cast one on for my youngest.

Oh that afghan is beautiful - well done for tackling that moogdroog, you must be very skilled Smile

I've got lots of little Christmas present bits and bobs on the go atm, - wrist warmers for my elderly dad, scarf and hat for DDIL, gloves for nieces, socks for DD. - All fairly quick and easy.

A Dickinson Sweater (from Interweave knits, half way up 1st sleeve; body done)

February Lady Sweater (via Ravelry, about as done as the other sweater!)

Bog standard no-pattern socks (half way down 2nd sock)

Hexagon Blanket (Bobby's Garden Pattern, using socky leftovers)

Cath Kidston Patch tote bag (just need to add the handles and will finish tonight I think)

DMC cross stitch picture of a 1930s cricket match (about half way)

Luckily I'm all about the process not the product!

KurriKurri - it's really not that difficult, just wrap and turns. I think the seaming and the edging are going to be the most difficult bit (crochet! [fear]) I find that anything I knit with Noro Kureyon always looks more impressive than it is. The wool does all the hard work for you! You've got quite the to-do list there.

I will have to check out the Travelling Shawl Amara - my lovely ILs had a rare moment of good taste and bought me a skein of handspun Wensleydale. I think a shawl of some description might be the best use for it.

Jennie blimey! I thought I was bad having a few projects on the go. That's quite a list.
