I just need to work out the yarn. As for knitting for others or not, it's your call, your time and you get to chose how to spend it. After the wedding shawl, it's all going to be about me. xx I am so in love with that red shawl, I am quite convinced that there is one of those in my future. I just need to work out the yarn.

She heard I was knitting myself socks (still not finished), and asked for socks. So, somehow I think hers will be done before mine.

Two lace scarves for others exhuasted my good intentions. But I promised one to my mom for her birthday, which is next month and I haven`t casted on yet. And I promised to knit my husband a Rogue (what was I thinking?). I can`t wait to use all the tweed yarn that I somehow stashed during the spring and summer. There is a yummy Jo Sharp Silkroad and then some Yorkshire tweed (About 3 sweaters worth)and Kid Classic. All for me! Do I really have to knit another shawl? I have the opposite problem too.

Your projects are lovely and your photos are great for showing them off. And you are a fast knitter!!!! Could I bother you to ask what manaquin (Sp???the red body form - can't spell) you use? I do knitting and quilting and I love to wear my handmades. I have been looking all over the internet and I don't find alot of choices. Yours look new and my friends either found there's at tag sales or have had them forever! Many thanks for your help!

And I tend to like big, complicated projects, even though I should consider some simple quick ones (my husband could definitely use some watch-cap-type hats for the cold weather and a scarf or two). And, I too, after some years of knitting for others have made "me" the focus of this year's knitting. But I decided, since I'm going to Stitches East for the first time, to work on some things related to classes I've signed up for. That definitely simplified some decision as to what to knit next, although marinating in my brain are some sweaters I want to knit using my own designs.

I don't think I have anything that I'm looking forward to knitting - I'll be in a complete knitting lull once I finish my current projects, eep!

Which is especially funny considering I've hardly even picked up my needles for a couple weeks now - just too busy doing other things, no energy for knitting. I have to finish up a pair of long fingerless mittens for a customer, and then I'm casting on a Wicked sweater for myself. It's a lot of stockinette, but not the tiny gauge you're doing. I commend you. ;) See, and I’m just the opposite: I should be starting to knit things for other people (holiday gifts!), and all I can think about is making things for myself.

I'm a huge fan of miles of charcoal stockinette! And I can't wait to see what you do with the sewing machine--which, incidentally, I find to be perfect for providing small bits of cheery blog fodder while i'm cranking away on something stockinette-y. As for my queue, I have stuff I should be working on--but I REALLY want to cast on for a Josephine after seeing some lovely finished ones around blogland...
