Out of Focus

I can't seem to be able to focus on one project long enough to finish anything. I was stymied by running out of Zara Chine so I couldn't finish the Marias sweater. My first online order fell through (they had Zarina, not Zara). I have ordered a skein directly from Tahki so here's hoping. It's knit with some Koigu so dyelot shouldn't be a big deal (here's hoping!).

I've left the Katydid sweater at the LYS for finishing. I took that thing to the frog pond so many times, I'm sick of the sight of it. But we found pretty buttons, so maybe I'll be forgiving. For God's sake, I hope it fits.


Also on the needles: newborn baby sweater in Rowan Cotton Rope; the Garden of Alla shawl in Kudo and LaLa's Simple Shawl in Sublime Aran--all from stash!


I'm also working on a KuKu doll and a Irish Step Dancing dress for an American Girl doll.


Finally, I did finish the Baby West sweater. It's now in the cabinet in my office waiting to be mailed to hand delivered. Baby steps...
