But the shoved-in-the-back-of-your-knitting-bag-haven't-seen-the-light-of-day-in-months projects are what has my attention lately!
It was making me uncomfortable to scroll so far down my Ravelry projects page before finding anything that's finished, and I finally got motivated to finish things that I'd abandoned.
I seamed the One-Piece Baby Kimono from Mason-Dixon Knitting and assembled a crocheted frog from a free pattern sheet. I crocheted the top edge and straps of a string bag I was improvising (long hibernation due to running out of yarn, the dye lots in stores sucking, and me forgetting how to do the stitch pattern). I finished a shrug for my mom that is a highly modified form of Knitty's Bobblicious.
Now I'm halfway through a headband-sized version of Garter Stitch Loop-Through Scarf from 101 Designer One-Skein Wonders made with the leftover yarn from my scarf-sized version of the same pattern. I've also got Lucia Tedesco's New England Stole nearly done, and just need to rip out a few rows of the straight portion and do the ending decrease rows (I counted wrong and thought I could do one more repeat without running out of yarn).
