Historical version 51 of Kake's Projects (view current version)
Currently on the go
See Kake Makes blog for all the boring details of what I did when. See also Kake's Yarn Stash.
- Noro coat - back is mostly done.
- Kake and doop's blanket - one crochet square done.
- Coiled basket - base is about 10cm diameter.
- Marna's cardie - knitting done, am seaming and weaving in ends.
- Black fishnet crochet jumper - body and first sleeve (worked directly onto the body) done, working on second sleeve.
- Lilac long-sleeved top - knitting and some seaming finished, blocking now.
- Eskimo scarf for Liz - about 10cm to go.
- Purple crochet baby trousers for Katy - need to attach poppers
- Strawberry baby hat for Katy (needs sewing together (must find yarn))

Reasonably firm plans
- choker for doop - he wants the anthracite beads; I need to buy more
- jumper for Nick - green acrylic chenille I got from ebay
- jumper for doop - black Sirdar Wow (yarn is bought)
- Scarf for Art - Noro Iro shade 51 (yarn is in stash)
- Rainbow-coloured hemp jumper for me (yarn is bought)
Messing about with
- Patons green 100% cotton chenille - will probably knit into a jumper, maybe using that Jarol pattern I've had for ever, maybe not photo (I have 10 x 50g balls bought from ebay)
Patterns to try
- Striped sideways jumper (I don't have the pattern; apparently a Kaffe Fasset one)
- Toe-up short-row toe socks (knitting)
- Toe-up plain knitted socks
- Yet another sock
- Big gents' pullover (knitting) - maybe in Velvet Touch
- 'bob' sweater from knitty.com
- Sailing pullover (knitting, I don't have the pattern)
- 'Sonnet' sweater from knitty.com - side-to-side cardigan - I like the lower picture with fewer, larger buttons.
- Big Easy crochet sweater
- http://www.lionbrand.com/patterns/chs-flatteringJacket.html - Long crocheted jacket (see the fuzzycraft blog entry on this)
- Short-sleeve crochet pullover
- But not in that colourscheme; I have taste.
