Oh this is ugly! Not as ugly as it might have been but not good.
No finished projects!
Wool in 700g, wool out 198g, net increase for the month 502g, and net decrease for the year reduced to 5338g.
Most of the Wool In was the Little Grey Cells club; there was the usual 150g for the three months plus I had ordered 200g of undyed to go with it. The colours of the club are lovely but they are very bright and so the blanket I am using them for needed something to calm it down. All the wool out was work I did on that.
Of the rest I had the Debbie Abrahams Bunting Kit and I am well through that. Then I bought 200g of baby 'wool' to make a baby blanket for the daughter of a friend who is expecting her first baby in the spring, and I've just broken into the second ball of four. And none of the wool was an impulse buy, it all had a purpose, which is a good thing.
That said today has thrown up a multitude of problems and there's a lot of lovely pre-Christmas indie dyer stuff out there, so I'm hoping I can keep away from the Buy buttons. There will be advents arriving shortly and I'm off to a Knitting Show at the end of the month so hopefully the thought of both of those things will keep me strong for now.
And November should see some finished things; more time inside, some planned socks and the other two in progress projects inching towards completion.
I think Wool In is acceptable if you have a project ready for it...does that help??
