Obsession

I can be a little obsessive. This week it was brought to my attention that as a guild we were challenged to knit a hat for the next guild meeting. We are knitting hats for the Y's woman's shelter. Well of course it was only 'bout 5 days to the guild meeting. I love an excuse to go buy more yarn-I didn't have any washable yarn! So I knit like a fiend and basically put out a hat a day. The last was the blue striped. My daughter loved the lavender striped so I had to do it in her colors, blue.
The obligation shawl #2 is so close to being finished. I have a month and a week to finish #2 and #3. I should be able to do it easily although I can't say I am going to feel like knitting this pattern again anytime soon.
The socks are going slow with all of this obligation knitting but I am savoring the colors of the yarn. Luscious!
