Project like in “UFO’ like in “unfinished object.” Too little time, too much wanting to to do!

Smug
Ásta Sóllilja is a sweater I just finished, like minutes ago! The first finished object of the season, and I am feeling so smug about it . . .
Flight of the Albatross*
Whew! What a relief it is to get those socks out of my life! I’m glad I did them, but the frustration – combined with guilt – about finishing them was a burden. I had no energy to do anything. And now they are gone I’ve been on sort of a rampage – cleaning house – gardening – and finishing up a heap of UFOs. I’ve got a number of berets and a pair of socks now, with loose ends woven in and toes woven shut, and a dropped stitched secured. That makes me feel really productive, and here are the results:
A grey Meret for a birthday last February:
Two berets for a friend’s May birthday:
A Porom for myself, out of handspun grey yarn plied with an orange (sounds ghastly, but really very nice!):
A watch cap for a different February baby, to match Christmas mittens:
And socks for me – or maybe a gift for someone with the same size tootsies:
And finally, a model for a pattern which I may post, or submit to a magazine . . . . but that picture will remain a secret for now!
Ah . . .
