So what is everyone working on this week? I'm picking up an abandon project--an afgan I was making for my dad last year, and then got frustrated with. I'm going back to it now...it's so...slow... xp

I've got a lot of random projects going on - started on Knitty.com's Clapotis for a dear friend of a professor for Christmas, til the yarn for a commission project comes in. Also just bought HipKnits, and I'm going to make the Orange Peel Sweater in the Bernat Galaxy I found on clearance ($1!!!!! eek ) Clapotis is getting to me sweatdrop

I think my project this week is to excavate my yarn. We had been planning to move, but things didn't work out. I boxed up my yarn in preparation to move and then the boxes got buried by boxes of other stuff. Silly me didn't label my yarn boxes......
If I can find some inexpensive metallic crochet thread I plan to start on some clothes pin angels for the ferret shelter. It's a big if though. I haven't been able to find any metallic knit cro-sheen anywhere locally and a search I started on the web hasn't yielded any for sale yet.

I've got a couple more rows left on that scarf, then I'll be done. Once I finish that I'll be working on the baby blanket again. I'm mostly done with the first arm of my plushie, but I need stuffing. I'm working on that one in fits and starts since I'm using such a small hook.

I'm getting started on a cross-stitch of a Gaia avatar. I've made three in the last few months, I quite like them. The only problem is they take a hell of a long time to make. x____x' (I apologize if some of the pictures are big.)[x][x][x]It's certainly a step up from the little video game sprites I used to do all the time. sweatdrop
