So as happens to many crafters I seem to be going through a bout of start-itis.
On top of my other WIPs I just had to start a crochet project...
This will be a Molly Market Bag by Iron Lamb, so far enjoyably simple and quick although I think I probably should have considered a gauge swatch. The reason for this start made sense, I want to make a number of these bags as gifts for Xmas so as it's currently Xmas in July in my world this seemed the ideal time to make a test run. (Yarn is Drops Paris)
This is the early days of a Musselburgh Hat by Isolda Teague. Currently I'm living in two places due to working away from home during the week. With the current warm weather I was sure I would need some suitable for outdoor knitting at the weekends and the two projects on my needles at homedidn't really lend themselves to that (heavy DK wool and white yarn) so the Musselburgh Hat made sense. I also had a quiet hour to myself to try out the Pinhole cast on (Tin Can Knits tutorial) for the crown. Cast on was so fun I might need to cast on another Musselburgh! (Yarn is dyed by Felted Fusion - Black Rainbow colourway I think)
And last night I decided I needed another at work project just because so thus started the cuff of the first of a pair of socks in beautiful limited edition yarn from Meadow Yarn.
And I don't regret a single cast on. And don't feel that I'm neglecting any of my other (4) WIPs. I might regret a second Musselburgh before I've finished the first though!
