Ok, I've given it some thought!

I so wasn't ready to think about March when I posted my list for this month, so I sort of guessed haphazardly as to what I'd like to knit. But now that fresh springish breeze is blowing in my window and my head has been cleared. So:


1. Misty Garden by Jo Sharp, using the Noro Kureyon Sock yarn that Kenny got me for Xmas/ Gift pile '08/ March. 31
2. "Robin's Egg Blue Hat" (but not in blue, in green instead)/ for gift pile '08/ March 31
3. Simple cabled scarf made from leftover Shearer's Yarn from last year's sweater (I swear those leftovers have taken me so far)/ for gift pile '08/ FO



4. Diamond Modular Scarf in Noro Silver Thaw (which I got for practically nothing at the Yarn Swap my LYS hosted last week/ for Elizabeth's Xmas present '08, a co-worker extraordinairre/ finish by March 31/ WIP


(Yes, only 4 items, because I'm working on my sweater and the Misty Garden scarf is made with sock yarn. I'm not a sadist; I need some time here).

BrownBerry's March List

Hello all!
So I've let March get fully underway before posting my list! Tsk Tsk :)
Here's what I had last month:


1. Baby Cardigan/Baby Brown/His Debut/Feb 15(a rollover from my Jan list) - SCRATCHING THIS ONE - baby is here and cardigan weather won't last long

2. Sarong / Neicey/ Thank You Gift / Feb 16 - SCRATCHING THIS ONE - I started this and miscalculated yarn amounts; our cruise vacation is now over (awwww) so her next knitted gift will be for her birthday or Christmas

3. Shawl/Mama Nasby/Birthday Gift / Oct 08 - REVISING THIS; I'm obsessed with the idea of doing a Hemlock Ring so that is going be my "big" project for this year

So here's my real March list:

1. Baby Socks/Baby Welcome Gift/ Secret Baby Shower/May 1
2. Baby Hat/ Baby Welcome Gift/ Secret Baby Shower/May 1
3. Small Afghan/Mama Nasby/Birthday Gift / Oct 08 - My goal for March is to find the right yarn for this and CO

Out with February, in with March


Hi everybody,
It's been fun to see what a productive month February has been for many of you!
It has been a bit uneven for me. I was excited to finish my Branching Out and I managed to finish off a bag for the 1Q challenge, so that is one for me.



I started the chemo cap for my friend D that was on my list and will roll it over to March and I am going to restart the guitar strap for my son for March as well, so here is my March list:
1. Chemo cap/for D/cuz she needs it/March 10
2. Headband/for ???/holidays 08/March 20 (2nd 1Q challenge entry)
3. Guitar strap/for I/April birthday/half done by the end of March
4. Sideway Spencer/for me/springtime!/3/4s done by the end of March
5. Wonderful Wallaby/for baby W/birthday in Aprtil/started by the end of March.

Happy knitting,
Suzie (suzenew)
