Historical version 66 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 (except I got bored of updating it). See also Kake's Yarn Stash and Kake's Wish List.
- Debbie Bliss hooded top for Holly - knitting is all finished, one sleeve sewn on.
- Coiled basket - base is about 10cm diameter.
- Black fishnet crochet jumper - two small seams left to do, but it's actually wearable now.
- Rainbow-coloured hemp jumper for me - working on the back.
Stalled projects
- Lilac long-sleeved top - need to decide if I actually like this after all. I think I probably don't - the yarn is too heavy for the design.
- Marna's cardie - need to try it on Marna.
- Noro coat - have run out of yarn!
- Purple crochet baby trousers for Katy - need to buy some poppers that actually work. Or velcro.
Reasonably firm plans
- jumper in black, green and red [Jaeger Matchmaker Merino]? for Toby.
- choker for doop - he wants the anthracite beads; I need to buy more
- jumper for Nick - green probably
- jumper for doop - black Sirdar Wow (yarn is bought)
- Scarf for Art - Noro Iro shade 51 (yarn is in stash)
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)

- But not in that colourscheme; I have taste.
