End of month yarn stats:  42 entries, 65 skeins, 21,666.20 yards. (No change from March.)
 
April 2024 mini-achieve goals:

1.  Seriously.  Don't buy any more yarn.  Even for planned projects.  (Unless the project has a strict deadline).
2.  Since I've started Ceciliana, maybe try to get to the halfway point.
3.  Work on a reed again.  Maybe do that once a week.  Especially because the reeds I ordered haven't shipped yet.
4.  Bonus:  Finish Liesl?

Hehe, knitting mojo was down a bit in April.  I'll work on May's knitting and get it a bit more scheduled.  May 2024 mini-achieve goals:

1.  Finish Liesl.  But first, finish Corvin.  For reasons.
2.  Maybe finish the blanket?  For the same reasons?  Or at least make sure to work several inches on it every time I'm at my in-laws' house (because that's where it lives right now).
3.  Keep working on reeds.  I did get my order, but practice is important.
4.  Speaking of practice, make sure I'm practicing several times a week until the concert on the 26th.
