As I typed this title, strains of the song "the closer you get" by the group Alabama flickered through my mind. It has very little to actually do with this post though.
With a wedding one week away and counting, I've been hunting for the little things that are needed. I lost a camera and have been hunting high and low. There's a good camera for stills, but I thought it would be great to have video of the exchange of vows. The only camera we have that can do it was missing. I have found it.
I also found several wips that I really want done. One is a design of my own for a crocodile stitch shawl. The yarn is patons lace in cream.
Another one is a flower sweater. The yarn is ella rae chunky acrylic/ alpaca blend. Instead of the blue/beige ombre in the pattern, I'm choosing a golden yellow with dark brown and gingerbread. I have an affinity for sunflowers. The yarn in the pattern is a fine weight but I zipped it up to a bulky weight.
The last one i found is Cancun Boxy Lace Top. The yarn i chose is Tahki Stacy Charles mercerized cotton dk weight in shades of blues and greens. I'm also making it longer than indicated.
So as you can see, I am closer to having no wips by virtue of frogging and dismantling the kits i made but have changed my mind about. But I'm further away because I added 3 more.
