wip...

stands for work in progress. yes, friends, you've got yourselves a knitting post...

clapotis:
after knitting on the damn thing since august, i finally finished my clapotis shawl on tuesday morning. i've still got a bit of finishing work to do (weaving in ends (ugh) and blocking), which i'm hoping to knock out this weekend. in celebration of my accomplishment (that is, finishing the infernal thing...), i'll be wearing it for at least a week straight.

steam scarf:
this is my sister cami's christmas present. lest you be thinking that i'm way ahead of the game, i'm talking last christmas. but it's done now. and it's lovely. again, needs a bit of finishing work and it'll be ready to go. my consolation on its tardiness is that unfortunately for chicagoans (?), it's still cold enough in march to wear scarves.

rucksack:
this is my niece grace's christmas present (yes, same christmas...). i'm still working on it. fingers crossed for a weekend completion...

once all of these three items are completely finished, i'll post photos.

the next project in my queue is a hat for rusty. i've been promising him one since before thanksgiving. my goal is to finish before hat-wearing weather in boston passes. which is, what, mid-may? :)

good lord, i'm running behind...
