1. Two socks on two circular needles: Cascade Fixation
2. Two socks on two circs: Trekking
(I can explain why I have two pair started at once - Judy taught a group at my house on Sat. and I had to jump in and participate, of course. But socks don't count anyway - this is something upon which all knitters agree. Just like sock yarn in stash.)
3. The child's guernsey in cotton that will never die or be finished (H now says he wants it, so I have to re-knit the ribbing I started to pull out, never mind the sleeves, etc.) This is threatening to move to the "in hibernation" status.
4. The entrelac scarf which I've got to finish before our entrelac felted bag knit-along starts NEXT WEEK.
5. Various swatches for future projects which of course don't count either, I really don't even know why I'm mentioning them.
Not so bad! Knitting Daily did a poll on how many UFO's (unfinished objects) the average knitter has going. The bell curve average is 3-6, so I'm right in there. Especially as 23% of respondents have 10 or more going.
I've decided that by airing my count monthly, I can't get too far gone - it's keeping me from a secretive casting-on binge. I'm actually one of those knitters for whom UFO's create a bit of anxiety and nagging guilt, but I do like having options to knit among depending on the setting.
OK, all you knitters out there, what's YOUR count?
