href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/shades-of-grey\">Swirl<\/a> (50% complete). Very likely to finish the knitting. The seaming might get procrastinated.<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/sock-yarn-blanket\">Sock blanket scarf<\/a> (60% complete). Now too big to carry round as a portable knitting project, but too small to be finished. Slim chance of finishing any time soon.<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/africami-elephant\">amigurumi<\/a> project. I&#8217;ve lost interest in this. I have an elephant and half a turtle. Needs bringing to a close before I start another crochet project.<\/li>\n<li>Some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/kam-chu\">camouflage lace socks<\/a> (first sock nearly done).\u00a0 Highly likely to be finished. These were put aside in order to do the great big auction socks of DOOM. It was a toss-up as to whether to finish these before the swirl, but the swirl is definitely winter knitting, so these can wait.<\/li>\n<li>Some plain socks using the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/fish-lips-kiss-heel\"> Fish Lips Kiss Heel<\/a> &#8211; always nice to learn a new heel. (Honesty here &#8211; I&#8217;ve just had to add this to Ravelry because I started it over the summer when I was in a hurry for a new project and never got round to adding it as a WIP). My current portable project: slowly but surely it will be finished.<\/li>\n<li>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/projects\/zeah\/square-a-month-kal-2011\">big cotton blanket<\/a> from 2011. I think I&#8217;ve six squares completed. Let&#8217;s not kid ourselves: I may as well add this to the WIP list for the end of next year. The blanket needs to be bigger than the child it is destined for (or her dolls) and she is now 3.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-507 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/03\/15\/springtime\/webelephant\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/webelephant-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-343\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-343'>\n\t\t\t\tAmigurumi\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2013\/04\/25\/knitting-and-crochet-blog-week-day-4-colour-review\/webimg_2853\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/webIMG_2853-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-397\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-397'>\n\t\t\t\tSock Blanket\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2015\/01\/08\/2014-fo-and-wip-round-up\/fishlips\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/fishlips-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-514\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-514'>\n\t\t\t\tFish Lips Kiss\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2015\/01\/08\/2014-fo-and-wip-round-up\/swirl\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/swirl-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-517\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-517'>\n\t\t\t\tSwirl\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2015\/01\/08\/2014-fo-and-wip-round-up\/camouflagelace\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/camouflagelace-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-522\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-522'>\n\t\t\t\tCamouflage Lace\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/2015\/01\/08\/2014-fo-and-wip-round-up\/squareamonth\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/squareamonth-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-523\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-523'>\n\t\t\t\tCotton blanket\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The plan is to finish the swirl before starting anything else.<\/p>\n<p>What is in the queue and ready to begin?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Color Affection: yarn wound, pattern printed<\/li>\n<li>Kadril &#8211; pattern gifted by Beth in 2013, yarn chosen, needs winding<\/li>\n<li>Knee-length socks for me.
