still alive!

Knitting has taken place, I've even got a crochet project on the go... alas nothing has been finished in a very long time (well, I did knit socks on holiday, must get a photo of those up)

I've got too many WIP's on the go at the minute - a sock, a crochet blanket thing, a baby cardigan, a toddler shrug, a clapotis and I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

I did buy yarn while on holiday and I totalled it up the other night... over 2 kilos!!!!!! Majority of it was sock yarn, so i've more than enough to keep me going for a while. So much so that when I came home I had to buy new storage for it. I've the sock yarn stored in chronological order, a tub of yarn for projects in my ravelry queue, a basket of things to knit now and the rest of the yarn in more tubs. Its crazy! I don't need any new yarn for quite some time.

Back on the cold sheep/100 ball knit down challenge (although this year I've gifted more than I've knitted, lol)
