Hats:

Other:

A Dog Sweater, Unknown Yarn (this one I've been asked to do - the asker provided yarn and pattern)

Well, Aeolian is done, as are the Wollmeise socks.  Those were finished early August.  Where did August go, anyway?  Can't believe it's half done already.

End of August goals:  new socks I intend to cast on this weekend for my husband.

Wow.  Um, yeah.  So I haven't finished anything since the last update.  That's not great, I guess.  On the other hand, I haven't bought yarn since mid-March, so there's a win, right?

Goals for November:  Frog what is listed to be frogged.  I think I know where that scarf is.  Finish the handspun scarf, and maybe the dog sweater.  Chances are that neither will get done, and I'll finish the slippers instead.
