Have you started on your Christmas knitting yet?
So far, I've got these planned:
Sweater for 4-yo Nephew A (modified-Haiku)
Sweater for 2-yo Nephew B (modified-Haiku)
scarf for boss (undetermined pattern)
scarf for colleague (undetermined pattern)
small bag for colleague (probably Sophie)
socks for colleague/friend (working on the second)
and something undetermined for a friend.
Uhhh, yeah.

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Fri, August 31, 2007 - 6:17 PMI said "planned." I didn't say "done" or even "bought the yarn for" :)
(Actually, yarn shopping was going to be today's after-work treat, but I kinda lingered over the shoe shopping and didn't get to the store in time. Tomorrow, though, watch out -- Dragon and her credit card are whipping up a storm!) -

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Fri, August 31, 2007 - 8:32 PMWatch out! Don't get too fired up and burn down the house (LYS). Every time I get all stoked I have to buy a new plastic storage container for my growing BLES (is that right? Beyond Life Expectancy Stash)
Have a blast. -

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Fri, August 31, 2007 - 9:18 PMYes, I strive to achieve SABLE (Stash Acquired Beyond Life Expectancy). It's a goal of mine, along with smooching George Clooney and marrying a billionaire (who may or may not be Mr. Clooney; it's negotiable). Probably more achievable, though.
Plenty of storage left -- I'm pretty good about not buying something without a project in mind. *ahem* So far, anyway ;) -

Sat, September 1, 2007 - 12:32 PMJust think of the SABLE an the accompanying quarters for it you could get from Mr. Clooney, or any other gorgeous billionaire.

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Sat, September 1, 2007 - 2:59 PMahhh crap ;)
uh, started? yyyyyes? any significant progress? ehhhmmmmNO.
September huh...I'm in trouble! =)
I did buy some sock yarn last week, with the INTENT of being Christmas gifts. I haven't picked out a pattern or...the recipient!
I did start a baby quilt for my nephew coming in October, so that's my defense. =D -

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Sat, September 1, 2007 - 5:52 PMYeah I started. I knocked off two afghans and am working on a baby blanket now. Plan on getting rid of my stash since I need the space. -

Re: Oh dear goodness it's already almost September
Sat, September 1, 2007 - 6:01 PMYou've "knocked off two afghans"?!?!? How do you people do that? My hearts-and-cables afghan mocks me even though it's hidden from view (in a lovely hat box, thank you). *sigh* <feelings of inadequacy>
I've now bought all the yarn I'll need for my planned gifts. Which is not to say that there won't be some re-planning going on later! And, while my "in progress" box is awfully full, nearly all of that box is for the Christmas stuff, which will be happily knitted soon.
Yay, scarf knitting tonight :)
