What I knit as the cold settles in (aka WWCS post)

As it gets cold here my thoughts of what all I want to knit expands, but doesn't really change. What I am knitting doesn't really change that much either. I mean I have this scarf I need to finish after all (I am on row 943 out of 1140!!!). However since I need that knitter's gratification thing (Is it done yet? Is anything done yet?), I toss in a dish cloth or two, or a hat, and I might just start a sock or something. I always have more ideas of what to make (be that knitting, cooking, beading, sewing, or whatever) than I really have going at any given time.
As soon as I finish this scarf up, I have a sweater I promised a young man this summer. I also keep thinking about fingerless mitts or fold-back mittens though, does thinking about adding projects count?

I have been thinking about knitting a bed for a certain someone, but she seems to have adopted a shawl I made several years ago for my grandmother as her personal daytime sleeping spot.(You know, sleeping, when she isn't climbing on or into something or place.)

  4. We missed you at knitting, but as promised, we talked about you. :P

    Giz thinks Oribel is spot on by finding the best napping areas--and hand knits top that. She says that her knitted kitty pi from wendyknits.net is her favorite place to spend the day--if there's no fresh clean laundry on the bed waiting to be put away.

  6. Awww, your kitty looks so cute. I love how they find the softest, warmest spots of the home to sleep.
