The Month of Finished Projects

First, a hurricane sock-in-progress picture.

This isn’t the best picture I took of the sock. I just liked the monkeys.

Chris has surprised everyone by making it this far. If you are a weather buff, you might want to read more about him here.

And now, a Public Service Announcement.

August is going to be The Month Emily Finishes Things. I will be wrapping up the three pairs of socks I have on the needles (four if you count Squall), finishing the FBS (or making an honest attempt at it anyway) and renewing my vows to the Epic Counterpain. I am going to make at least one bedspread square a week. To facilitate this goal, the only knitting allowed while watching Monk and Psych is bedspread knitting.

With luck, hard work and candy, maybe I will be able to start new projects in September. Like throw pillows. Or a cardigan. Or more socks.
