Updates on all current projects

I thought I'd just update my blog a bit. And add pictures too!

I currently have four projects on the needles/hook: (1)toe-up socks, (2)hairpin lace shawl, (3)baby booties and (4)Clapotis shawl.

The toe-up socks are on size 0 needles. Ughh! What a mistake. I thought I can deal w/ the repetitiveness of the stockinette but it's taking forever. I may just never finish it.


The hairpin lace shawl is currently on hold. I put it on hold when the Clapotis KAL began. I'm at the part where I crochet the long edging piece around the entire shawl. It's a little different and needs a bit more concentration while reading directions so I'll wait 'til I have the concentration for that.



I haven't touched the booties in a while. In fact, I think I lost my count and am not sure which row I'm on. Also, I need to buy or find some buttons for the booties. I'm almost done with them. 'Was working on this project while also working on the hairpin lace project. This was supposed to be a quick knit. And it is. I just lose interest faster than it knits up. haha. The momentum was lost after starting on the Clapotis. Other than that I think I would've finished it by now and would be working on finishing the hairpin lace shawl.


For the Clapotis shawl, what started out as a shawl has become a scarf. I substituted the needle from size 8 to size 4 since we're using lace weight yarn and I'm not much of a lacey person. The outcome is fine with me. I think it's something I would use. I told Mommy I would give it to her when I'm done. I have great momentum w/ the Clapotis. It must be because I'm knitting with other people. It keeps me up-to-date w/ homework. The scheduled date to finish this project is by June 2nd. It seems that I haven't been rushing into labor so I think I may be done around that time.



I hope I don't start anymore projects until I complete at least one more knit/crochet project.

Your clapotis is so delish. You definitely need to post more pics of the finished project. I'm 4/9 of the way done with mine.
