nowhere to start

I'm not particularly in love with "firsts."  So instead of an introduction or some such nonsense I'll just list what craft projects I'm currently working on.

Aside from my endless quest to improve my craft room I'm working on three (four?) knitting projects, an embroidery piece, and some ornaments for my family (which I swear I haven't been putting off since June...).

There's a headband for my sister which is getting worked in a heather grey wool/acrylic blend.  A hat for that guy I like a lot which is only at swatch stage but will be done up in black worsted weight wool that I got from his mother.  A mouse (yes, a mouse, more on this later).  And a sweater I'm working on using a Boston Tweed pattern that is coming along quite nicely.

I'm still in the design process on the embroidery piece - a set of tea towels for my mom to match her kitchen.

And the ornaments are surprise (lest a family find my less than inconspicuous blog) but I promise to do post about those later.

That's all for now.  ttfn.
