Another finished project! I'm on a roll...a skein....a ball? Oh, never mind. But I've been knitting a lot lately and I think the key to finishing lots of projects is to have lots of different things OTN. That way, I'm never bored and I can just keep switching from one to another. I have a knit-night friend who once said she had eighteen projects OTN. That is too many, WAY too many for me. I would just get confused and end up with a sleeve on a scarf or something. But two or three I can manage.This scarf project is FUN! It is made with two skeins each of Noro Silk Garden, colors 255 and 211. If you know Noro yarn, you know that there is an unlimited number of combinations for striping, since the yarns are multicolored. I don't think I've ever seen a solid color Noro. I don't know if there is one...
Anyhow, for an easy, fast and fun project, check out Jared Flood's pattern on his Brooklyn Tweed site. If you need a Christmas gift for someone, you can finish this one in time. I promise!
Now I have only one project going, and it's a summer weight wrap, so I'm off to shop in my stash for something more to do!

I can't possibly have more than 2 things going at once...I might get confused and put a lovely cable pattern right through the ribbing of my socks!
If you had my sweater OTN I bet you'd finish it in no time.
Beyewtifool. I may have to add that to my ever-growing list of projects.
And to think, I once worried that I'd run out of interesting projects.
