WIPs for May 2018

5/1/2018

 
Picture
Another month, another opportunity to say, "Last month went by so fast," and to say that everything's still in progress!

I did know April was going to be busy, and somehow I've already overloaded myself for May, too. Good in some ways, and not so good in others. I'll be taking a dye workshop with one of my guild members, and then traipsing over to Boulder for a week of workshops with Elizabeth Johnston and Martha Owen ... leaving not so much time for turning WIPs into FOs. 

Knitting
  • Pictured above, my main knitting goal for May is to finish my Lucca shawl. I'm about 2/3 of the way through the border, and every time I count, it seems like I still have the same number of "teeth" in the edging. There's a reason why most traditional lace knitters do the edging first - it takes forever, and it's a pain to turn every row when the knitting is as huge as it is now...
  • I'm sort of itching to cast on this hat with some handspun...but so far, I've managed to restrain myself.
  • One of my Yarn Fest classes was Shetland lace knitting with Elizabeth Johnston. In it, we started a scarf - so once I finish Lucca, it will be on to that one.
  • And, of course, the stashbuster sweater is still on the needles. I'm thinking I'll take that one to Boulder with me. 
Spinning
  • There's lots of plying to do! I've managed to ply quite a bit, but there's always more. 
  • I'm wanting to weave an al-plaid-ca ruana. Sorry, I just couldn't help the pun. Anyways, it uses all natural alpaca colors, and I've spun up all the alpaca that's in my stash and am just waiting for the supplemental colors to come in the mail. Then it will be spinning (and more plying).
Weaving
  • I'm still not finished warping the floor loom and starting to think I bit off more than I could chew. Whoops. Someday I'll get this thing going for real.
  • I'm taking a couple of dye workshops and need to wind warps for those. I haven't painted a warp before, so this will be something new. 
What are you working on this month?
