It's that time again; time to evaluate my progress to Surmount the Stash. This month the news is more upbeat!
Monthly budget of $50 for all knitting related expenses: This month I spent $3 for a single pattern and not one red cent on yarn. Much better than last month. Maybe there's hope for me yet?
Manage my WIPs: My Smitten Advent calendar is STILL not done. I'm will finish it this week; promise, cross my heart. Last month I made six hats, a pair of colourwork mittens, one sock and one glove. This month I need to finish the second sock, the second glove, as well as that advent calendar.Plan projects to work through my inventory of yarns in my Stash: By focusing on hats I cut my stash of acrylic worsted by more than half. But, even though I didn't buy any yarn last month my sock yarn stash grew. Yesterday a package arrived with three gorgeous skeins of sock yarn from Studio June - a thank you present for designing her Ravelry ads. I know, I'm spoiled. Turns out Dee is right ... it is SOCtoberfest! Now which three patterns to choose?

So, if it's Socktoberfest, does that mean I need to get on this sock knitting thing again?
But, but, but...I need to finish my shawl!
Wow, that seems like quite an accomplishment for September! There definitely is still hope for you :).
Oh boy is that tempting to join! But I have yet to block my latest sock FOs. And I need to hunt for them.
How lovely you were gifted sock yarn as a mahalo for designing her ads. What a cool trade off!
I love when yarn shows up in my mailbox! ;-)
Congrats on all the finishes last month.
Ooh - I really like that light yarn peeking out from the bottom of the pic...
