What Are You Working On?

So, what's on your needles and hooks? Any interesting patterns out there that you have in the queue?

Now that my KAL knitting is complete and one nephew's Christmas, I am moving along in the list. On the needles right now:

The Kitchen Sink Blanket
Knitting this up for a shop sample
Main yarn is Lorna's Laces Shepherd Worsted
US Needle: 11

Patrick's Briar Rose Pullover
Yarn: Fourth of July from Briar Rose
US Needle: 6
This is the first pieced sweater I've made in ages!

My October goals include finishing up these two projects and the following:

1. Aidan's Christmas knitting/crochet. Remember, I got specific instructions from the little man regarding Spiderman needs. I think I've figured out some solutions...
2. Crochet Every Way Wrap: Tonia, Nancy, and I are going to make this together. I have the yarn and swatch all ready. Start night is 10/17 at T's house!

If I can get all of these things done in October, I will be in GREAT shape for the holidays. That would only leave one sweater to make for Patrick. I could then make that sweater in November and cast on some items for myself. I'm a little shy about making more sweaters for myself right now because my size is changing, which is a good thing. There is a hat that I might have to toss into October for myself...
