Anxiety of the blogging and finishing kind...

So, as you can see, I'm not much of a blogger.

I have abandoned the sweater pattern that kicked off this blog - the gauge is off a little AND I need a break from the project no one seems to know what to do with...

I finished Fred. Perhaps I'll post a picture soon. It's Fred, a felted basket, from Small Knits (www.smallknits.com). Silke is my hero. I found her website thru Knitty.com - she designed Edgar. Fred came out well, my first felted project that is larger than a Christmas tree ornament. I just received some Sierra from Knit Picks - my first experience from Knit Picks - NOT to be confused with knitpixie!!!! - and I'll let you know how the yarn knits up and felts.

I'm also working on 2 hats for Charlesie. He's 2.5 and was just diagnosed with leukemia. The doctors think he's going to be OK...he's going to be bald for about 3 years, so I better get on those hats.

I also have a scarf going - a pattern of Silke's. You like that? Her first name, as though I know her. She as VERY nice via email - at least I can say we've exchanged emails.

Do you ever have finishing anxiety? I HATE finishing work...
