Current WIPs

I'm ashamed to admit that I have quite a few works in progress laying around. I'll list a few of them here.





This is my crochet ripple stitch baby blanket. The pink strip is complete, the white strip is a little more than halfway done. If I remember correctly (I haven't looked at the pattern in a while), I need ten strips to complete the blanket. I probably won't come back to this project until I hear someone is going to have a baby girl.




This is a plain knit scarf for my sister. I work on it in between more complicated projects when I feel like a little mindless knitting.




This is the incomplete back of my mother's single crochet sweater. It's going to be a basic long sleeved sweater when complete. I'm hoping to finish it before Christmas this year.






This is the very beginning of a crochet hooded baby sweater. I started it while I was on a baby clothes spree. Like the blanket, I probably won't return to this project until I hear news of a baby girl on the way.



This is a simple single and double crochet baby blanket. I started it for my cousin's baby, but was unable to finish it when my crochet hook went missing. I have since found the hook and plan to finish the blanket this year.




This is the beginning of what I've dubbed "My Vision." Hopefully, this will turn into a wearable empire waist top. This particular part is the section that will go across the chest. I plan on crocheting a flowing "skirt" of shells below this piece and adding some thick straps with black buttons.


And last but not least:




My first knit garment. This is the back of my simple sweater vest. I'm using this piece as practice for more involved knit garments that I plan to make for Christmas.




Here's a close up of the ribbing on the bottom.


Well, there you have it! These are the things I'm currently trying to complete.
