    I am currently working on a plastic canvas bassinet for my daughter's dollies, a granny square blanket (in blue, purple, green, and white) for my new king-sized bed, a messenger bag for a friend, a blanket for my sister for Christmas, a rainbow granny square blanket, and a throw blanket for my daughter. :laugh: Just a few things added.

    I have the 2012 - Baby Blanket Bonanza going on at the moment. 9 baby blankets, 3 "boy" colours, 3 "girl" colours, and three "anything-goes" colours. I finished one blue and white in Bernet Pipsqueak and one pink and orange ombre in Bernat Baby Blanket. I'm working on a white/yellow/green ombre in an unknown yarn. It's tiny though, and I usually do my blankets in bulky weight yarn.

    I'm also working on a shrug to wear with my wedding dress.(http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/eleonora) I'm doing it in Bernat Satin Sparkle (ruby). I just started and restarted it a half-dozen times yesterday, and it's time to start it again. I really shouldn't knit when I'm sleepy.

    I'm working on a zombie doll for a friend's niece. It's due around x-mas time, but I'm done with the body and the limbs. Just gotta get the arms, feet, and the facial features done.

    Hi. I'm a novice knitter. I have 2 scarves I'm working on. I am so psyched about learning to knit! My daughter bought a Bea-uuu-ti-ful knitting book for me, and I'm in love with it. I've also aquired a couple more knitting books, and trying to learn the terminology. I just absolutely can not wait to try a ton of beautiful patterns that are in the book!! :D I am HOOKED on knitting!!

    All of your projects sound SOO EXCITING and WONDERFUL!! :D

    I'm working on shoulder wrap/poncho sort of thing. I've been going at it for MONTHS—since April, I think. Phew! I'm just a few inches away from being done... I want to wear it next month!

    Here's a picture from the pattern:

    I like granny squares (especially multi-colored ones). I saw this really awesome celtic knot square thing on Pinterest. Looked intimidating though. lol

    A hurting wrist means I'm not working on anything and it's making me sad. I think I may have carpal tunnel. :(

    If it is carpal tunnel, although it hurts a bit, the more you use it the better you will feel. That is what the doc. told me anyway.

    I have discovered locker hooking and have put my knitting away for a while so I can work on the little mat I am hooking.

    I am working on a basic watch cap for my son to match his Harry Potter scarf. Then I'll start a Slytherin scarf for my other child, followed by a matching hat.

    I started my first ever sweater -- have about 4" of the back done. But..............that is on the back burner cuz I need more mittens (I'm outside for hours a day/everyday). I made a pair of felted mittens and they are the best ever -- not only do they keep your hands warm but they also warm them up if they are cold when you put them on and they are water resistant. Need to do at least 2 pairs before I get back to the sweater -- I'm a slow knitter (more of attention span problem) so hoping to be done in 2 weeks.

    i'm currently working on two projects:-

    *1 I'm knitting two cushion covers for my living room settee in a teal colour, I'm doing a knit 4, purl 4 checkerboard pattern and i'll finish it off with a toggle button.

    *2 I'm crocheting granny squares to make a cushion cover for my diningroom settee, alternating mint and lilac squares with a pale grey border - it's my first granny square project.

    It definately helps keeping my hands busy in the evening - can we add it as exercise?
