The Thirst For Yarn Is Unsatisfiable

This has been my most accomplished week in knitting.
Sunday it started with Derek's Helmet Liner

This is knitted in Wool Ease: Thick and Quick. I had some extra cash and I went to the store strictly for darning needles and I walked by the yarn which were all 40% off and this green caught my eye. My derek loves green and I wanted to make  him something and he chose this! I started it at 6 in the morning and finished it later that evening. I had to modify the pattern for the thicker gauge. He also wanted horns! The horns took me two seconds to knit and a day or two to actually sit and sew them on...which again took me two seconds to sew on.  

 Monday. That was when I finished seaming my DR cardigan and finished an Etsy inspired scarf my friend wanted me to make for her.

..psst I think I'm going to steal Derek's extra skein of green from him so I can make me a scarf. I only used one of the two I bought..for 40% off!
Tuesday was Finishing my sweater
Wednesday..what did I do on wednesday?...oh yes! Slightly..finished those bunny slippers.

Do see them there on his feet?? I got fed up with the eyes so I told him "another day" Isn't my child such a bad ass. Atomic Wedgie (as derek said) with bunny slippers. He pulls it off with charm.
Thursday was a good day. I FINISHED my Duet scarf that night! I was too lazy and antsy to do the third lace repeat as stated. SO I finished it off and I doubt it will scrunch into that hat I was so jazzed about. No worries. I love it as a scarf and I would wear it everyday but I seem to have lost it :(

Friday I finished the knitting of the Burberry Cowl I started the night before! While I was blocking it, I immediately started working on a hood I was knitting out of the Berroco Borelias I got in my loot. I cast on for the hood shortly after getting back from the rainbow. I knitted it to small but decided to go with it. I picked up stitches around the face part and knitted 2 inches of ribbing. I binded off the stitches and then picked up stitches around the neck casting on 72 stitches to make a scarf. (36 on each side) So as of right now I'm working on the scarf section and I realize it's way to short. I'm gonna just keep knitting to the width I like ..cast off and then pick up stitches on the bottom of the scarf ends. This doesn't sound necessary at all if I had planned the hood out properly or followed a pattern. This is how I roll on my design technique and as complicated as it might sound I'm really excited to wear it!

 Saturday I took my hand at grafting! aka Kitchener stitch. I used this reference and this one. thank you! It took some time but once it clicked I was on a roll! Burberry Cowl Finished!

 

 I have no energy to get ready and model it right now. I plan to finish this hood today and my ambition is onto casting on a hat but my heart is casting on for Ian's Orange Sweater. ...hmmm
I also have to get all my sewing supplies ready for my sewing date tonight! My friend from high school, his girlfriend has asked me to teach her how to sew!

For my ambitious week I have started and finished 4 projects and completely finished off 2 projects...(my bunny ears are done and sewed on, I count that as completely done considering how long it took me to knit those ears)...3 projects when I finish this hood. Will I complete a whole other project by sunday night? or will I cast on that orange sweater for Ian? Will I do both??? or neither. Which is very very possible. Lets see what happens. I'm excited for my weekend with Derek to start!! Wish me luck on my fiberous goals!

the most determined PK on the block.
