Aww, I feel special now, I've been requested to start this thread up again :D

So - my project list is much shorter than it was first time round. Conclusive evidence that this thread does actually work!

Long term projects:
Jeanie
Secret of the Stole
Flower Square jumper

Finish within a month:
Draught excluder snake (still only needs stuffing :oops: )
10 more Easter chicks (I'm branching out from yellow ones, who knew that chicks came in purple?)
Second Knuck and sock
Bamboo scarf

Frog:
Nothing to report... yet.

Okay, over to the rest of you. Name and shame your WIPs and UFOs!

*wanders off to start acronym thread...*

My current WIP are

Mystery stole 4
Crochet sunhat
Great american Aran afghan
Socks for DH

The first 2 have been on the go since last year, and the afghan was cast on 18 months ago. I did frog a Kidsilk haze shawl recently that was half done and am now going to knit a jumper out of the yarn instead, I think that was on my previous list.

Ooooh, good, I like this thread (thanks for looking for the old one traxia btw).
I have cast on so many again that I can't remember what they are. They are all totally justified though... well, most of them are at least somewhat justified anyway :D

I've forgotten what it was I set my Feb goals to be but I haven't managed half of it!

Only thing I have made headway with is my easy slouch jumper, that is now cast off and 1 seam done, just the 2nd seam to do and it's complete!

I'll re-review my WIP's in March for new goals!

Mine aren't too bad atm:

Great American Aran Afghan - c/o Jan 09
Baby boy jumper in Happy yarn, just about finished, needs sewing (baby due in 2 days time!)
Triangular Summer Shawl, Nancy Bush, c/o yesterday
Hermia, Knitty. Apart from the borders, and hemming the bottom and sleeves, this is finished, but it's way too big for me, so I only pick it up when I'm out of other knitting and waiting for something to arrive.

Today I finished sewing up the fairisle beret from The Knitter

Very long term at the bottom of the pile:

Lizard Ridge blanket - might be turned into a cushion cover

Laminaria - fell off the needles when I rummaged in my stash box, and it might be one for the frog pond, as reconstructing where in the pattern I was seems impossible :(

All my long-term knits are listed in my signature below. They are all for me and there's no urgency to finish any of them; there are too many other yummy things I want to try :oops: The only one I may consider frogging is Ingrid's Birthday Scarf. I only started that as I have a couple of balls of the Sirdar Silky DK left over from making my Askew and I thought a scarf to match would be a nice idea. And I don't know what else I would do with the yarn, so it may just remain at the bottom of the basket as a nice easy TV knit for when I finish something in the evening and don't want to start something new. The Askew probably wont fit me any more by the time I get round to finishing it though :lol:
