Well, Aeolian is complete, and a new needle purchased.  The cat got put to the wayside and I worked on the Newborn Vertebrae instead.

September Goals:  Finish Newborn Vertebrae and Clue 3 of the MKAL (yeah, I fell behind).

Sweet.  The Newborn Vertebrae is finished!  I may still have to block it ... had a tiny moth scare (in the form of yarn breakage) but I think it's ok to bring into the apartment now.  I am halfway through clue 3 of the MKAL, so half-completed that goal.  I started some baby mittens for a friend, and I figure I'll finish them tonight during our WvW raid.

October Goals:  Finish those mitts and the Lanthir Lamath scarf (by the way, the yarn I bought almost perfectly matches!).
