I am going to host an “along” or, rather, a GIFT-along! Being early October & having an ambitious knit/crochet queue makes me a bit nervous that I won’t finish it all by the holidays. I’m pretty sure it’s just me being paranoid & I’ll be fine if I keep going at this pace, but you never know, right?

When you participate in an “along”, it means you join a support group of other knitters & hookers to get the encouragement you need to get your project(s) finished in time. As for myself, I think my gift queue is up to twenty projects or so to finish before December 24th, 2007.

This is my list:
*Veggies set (crochet)
*Child’s market bag (crochet)
*Tea set (crochet)
*longies x3 (knit) *1 in progress*
*2 winter sets (crochet)
*Ice cream treats (crochet)
*MIL’s gift (knit) *in progress*
*Milk carton (crochet)
*Soaker (knit)
*Socks (knit)
*Miscellaneous kitchen items (crochet)
*Weasley sweater (knit) *in progress*

That’s my looong queue!!

Finished:
Sweets set
Fruit set
Pear
12″ Waldorf Friendship doll
Pirate

If you’d like to join me in my mad rush to get an overly ambitious gift list completed, simply comment & make sure you leave your blog url so that I can add you to the blogroll! We will post progress reports each Saturday, or if the weekend is busy for us, Monday. Be sure to post photos so we can drool over your lovely work!
