Here were my goals from the week before:

• Mama’s Bukid – Page, 5, finish row 13 and get halfway through row 14. It would be great to have this page finished but I think that would be too much in one week. – I didn’t get halfway through row 14 but I came really close.  My goal for the month is to finish row 14 and get started on the next page. I’m pretty confident that I can get that done.  It would be great if I could get row 1 and row 2 done on Page 2 and page 6 which are the top and bottom pages that come next.  That’s kind of crazy and I’m not sure it’s doable. But it’s kind of fun to try. 
• Celtic Solstice – I would like to get the batting done this week and rent the long arm sometime in the next few weeks. If I can rent it on a Sunday that would work really well for me.  I’m just not sure they are open on Sundays for me to do that. – I haven’t done this yet. 🙁 
• Rainbow Garden – prep block 9 – you know the prep, trace all the pieces on freezer paper, cut, put it on the wool, cut again, etc. that will take some time but needs to happen so I can have something to work on.
•  – I haven’t done this yet. 🙁 
• Knitting projects:
  • Nestled socks – April pattern for the Cosy Sock Club
    • Print the pattern, pick the yarn, and cast on! … my favorite part.  – DONE! 
  • Weasley Sweater for Kayla – Mattress stitch the pieces and then work on the neck.  I’m almost done with the mattress stitch. I think I’ve only got one sleeve left which may take me 3 days.  Then I can start working on the neck. I’m not sure what that will entail but I will figure it out when I get there.  I do not think I will be finished with it this week but I want to get the mattress stitch done and get started on the neck.  🙂 – DONE!
  • Cowl – continue to do a round a day on this project. (dori’s voice) Just keep stitching.. just keep stitching… – DONE! There was actually one day that I did not stitch a round and that’s okay. 6/7 days is 6 rounds closer than I was last week. 

And for this week’s goals, here’s what I want to get done.

• Mama’s Bukid – Page, 5, finish row 14
• Celtic Solstice – prep the batting
• Rainbow Garden – prep block 9
• Knitting projects:
  • Nestled socks – April pattern for the Cosy Sock Club
    • Finish the foot
  • Weasley Sweater for Kayla – Finish the neck and weave in some ends.
  • Cowl – continue to do a round a day on this project.  

Happy Crafting!
