November Update

Current WIPs (new ones are bolded):

Sweaters/Cardigans:

Wispy Cardi, Malabrigo Lace
Purple Sweater (of my own design), Patons Classic Wool Merino
Rosemary Cardigan, Cascade 220 Heathers (not technically new, as I started it in August)
Hooded Baby Skyrim Sweater, Patons Roving

Shawls:

Orchid Thief, Classic Elite Yarns Alpaca Sox (hibernating - ran out of yarn four rows from the end)

Hands and Feet:

Toe-up Socks, Zauberball (on a 9-inch circular)
2aat Toe-up Socks, Some yarn that my husband bought and that I'll look up later
Little Red Riding Slippers, Bernat Roving (frogged - didn't like them)

Blankets:

Snowflake Blanket, Red Heart Comfort Solids

Scarves:

Tentaculum, Marks and Kattens Fame Trend (will be frogged ... when it stops hiding)
Daily Highs Temperature Scarf, leftovers
Lanthir Lamath, Handspun from Ireland

Hats:

Forester Hat, Debbie Bliss Merino DK

Other:

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

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.

Right on two counts.  Finished nothing.

Goals for December:  Finish the hat.  Start gloves for my husband.  Finish the Daily Highs scarf (yeah, right.  That'll be a week into the new year!) and find that hidden project that needs to be frogged.
