Mimosa Knits and other meanderings

I know I promised I would be at KH last Wednesday but this time the family got in the way. The inlaws from Maine came down to visit and see my lil' niece on her 2nd bday. Dinners and get togethers got scheduled and next thing I know it's Sunday morning.

What have I been doing you ask? Well more of the same thing. I can't seem to finish any projects and it's driving me insane! I see all of these cool things out there and I'm just bored with my current projects. But I must finish them! I must!!

Here's my current WIP list:

-- Peasant sweater using Green Mountain Spinnery yarn --- forever on hold! This pattern is cool but damn it the gauge is totally off and I refuse!! to do a gauge swatch for stockinette esp. when the pattern is so freaking simple. I will have to use this yarn elsewhere. I may need to buy more yarn and possibly use for Rogue

-- Lance socks for the DH....one done, one half way there...boring...and I need to improve my color work skills

-- Ladders and snakes stole, pattern here - I'm using Jaeger Zephyr in Pewter

-- 90% done with Paisley Flower Shawl - I had to do some serious tinking on this one...and basically lost several rows. Ouch!!!

A new project I started last week...

-- Jaywalker socks using Trekking XXL for hubby, I was going to make them for me but damn gauge is huge so he gets them. One sock is almost done.

Shopping List for MSWF
The list is ever growing...more fiber, yarn, tools, patterns, soap, etc. I can not wait! I know others have started their lists...Erin has...anyone want to share theirs?

Another place I want to visit is Carolina Homespun.
