I barely made getting September done in September but I did. Those white letters on the chalkboard were NO fun.
For the next 31 days I've got pumpkins to finish.
This year is flying by. I have to roll it up now so I can get to the last row. I can't wait to start something new.
Speaking of something new, this is not. This is my Rhinebeck sweater from at least 3 Rhinebecks ago that never got done. I take it out every October.
I just might get it done this year but I'm not going to Rhinebeck even if I do.
I am finally on the button bands. My Jennie the Potter buttons have been waiting a long time.
On the last day of September I blocked Son's gray cardi. I still have the front bands to do but I needed to see if I could get a bit more length out of those sleeves before I carried on.
I've also drug out the shawl I've been working on every fall since 2008. This may be it's year-or not.
I've also started something new. Meet Nurmilintu.
I had that pretty Wandering Cat handspun in the bin from the fiber she gifted me last fall that needed a project and this was a match made in heaven.
What I need to do is go get the rug hooking project I started last year and at least get a few rows on it this month. This is a great month for starting new things and rekindling old romances. I love October.

October is MY favorite month too. Looks like you have a lot of interesting projects to keep you busy!
ReplyDeleteYour October is rich on nice projects. Thanks for reminding that I need to dig out my rug hooking to make some progress.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness you have a lot of projects on the go. TWO sweaters!!! Oh my. I would be overwhelmed. That crossstitch is going to be stunning when it's done. I love it!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Betsy
You have resurrected some beautiful projects!
ReplyDeleteLove the new Nurlinmintu!!!!
Your Rhinebeck sweater is a beauty, just like all of your projects. I am trying to find the time to knit my Harvest sweater but time is a precious commodity I deem to be lacking these days.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're going to have a busy month. :-)
ReplyDeleteNurmilintu is on my list, too! Let me know how it goes, OK? Don't feel bad about old projects; right now I'm working on something I started in 1989 (last century?!) and I think both the yarn and shop are history. Sure hope I have enough yarn to finish it! Let's hear it for UFOS or is it WIPS?
ReplyDeleteI do hope you finish that sweater. It looks so cozy and the color is perfect for fall! Your cross-stitch is looking great.
ReplyDeleteSo many great projects on the go!
