My finished objects list for August 2021 isn’t very large because I had a monster project that was taking up all my knitting time. The Fancy Clancy Poncho! Which included a picot bind-off of over 900 stitches.
Finished Objects
I managed to finish the poncho by its due date! Thankfully! I’ve written a separate post on the poncho knitting journey. You can check it out here.
As well as that, I finished knitting the third, and very well received, version of the Garter Garden Shawl! Did you know you can knit your very own Garter Garden Shawl? The knitting pattern is available to purchase in my shop! You can easily find it by clicking here. Or if you want to read more about the shawl check out this post.
Lastly, I designed and knit a hat to pair with The Fancy Clancy Poncho so I called it the Fancy Clancy Hat.
WIPs
Although my finished object list is short, I have an exorbitantly large WIP (Work-in-Progress) list. The main WIPs in August were The Frenchy Blouse and the Bulevardi 5 Socks. However, there were lots of other projects on needles.
I’m nearing completion of The Frenchy Blouse, pattern by Poisongrrls. I’m loving how it is coming together and looking. I am up to the hem ribbing. I have cast on, ribbed the cuff and started the pattern on the leg on the second sock of the Bulevardi 5 Socks, pattern by Tiina Kuu. These two projects will, most likely and hopefully, be on the finished objects list for September.
In addition to these two gorgeous projects nearing completion, I was also making steady progress on my Brioche Cowl. This cowl is knit with NNK Yarns Sock Yarn in colorways Bubblegum Denim and Blue Jeans.
Unfortunately I have a lot of WIPs on needles that I didn’t get to at all during August. For instance these poor WIPs: Tom’s Crazy Socks, Summer Rose circular shawl, and the Sun & Moon Top.
Finished Objects September?
Firstly, I plan to finish The Frenchy Blouse. After that, I’d like finish the large version of the Hopeful Shawl and get the pattern ready for test knitting. In addition, I have two other shawls I am designing and knitting. However, they might be completed in October.
Lastly, I will be completing a couple request projects. My younger brother wants a Fancy Clancy Hat and I am crocheting another T-Rex amigurumi, this one for my Physiotherapist.
