I started a pair of socks for my MIL last week even though I hadn't finished the pair I'm working on (or the sweater... I'm on row 90something of 169). Thankfully, I don't have any additional rehearsals this week, so I'll have more time to work on knitting (and cleaning, so much cleaning!).
I finally bought my first pattern from MochiMochiLand today! I know so many people who would get a kick out of her patterns, but I figured that I wanted to get the materials together for a special project. I have just under a month to make two of these little cuties up and mail them to their intended recipients. Like most of what I've seen from MML, the pieces aren't huge so I think I have a shot at it around all of the socks, scarves and sweaters of my knitting days.
(I have to wonder if my in laws read the blog, so sometimes I'm deliberately vague. They, much like my mother, have never commented, so I can pretend that they are unaware, but only at my peril.)
