Where does the time go?

I always used to say, if you want something done as a busy person to do it; and for much of my life I was that busy person who seemed to fill her days with more done items on her to-do list than things that got postponed to the next day.

 

Lately though, I find that I am pushing more and more from today's list to tomorrows and things like keeping the blog updated seemed to fall by the wayside.  I'd look at it and think to myself, "there is so much to say, where do I start?" and then of course close the browser window and not start.  Today that changes and there really is a lot of knitting to talk about!

 

Since last we spoke I have published 4 patterns, two with Knotions and two that were self published on Ravelry and Payhip.

 

Trillium  was published in Knotions during February.  It is a large shawl taking approximately 1,200 yards of yarn but I do love the way it turned out!  

 April saw two self published patterns released into the world.

Syncopation Cuff Down Socks (that's a Ravelry Link...here is the Payhip one)  If you prefer toe up socks, those are in the beta-knitting phase now and should be released shortly.

And Insert Witty Title Here Mitts   (here's the Payhip link)

 Then this weekend another Knotions pattern, States of Matter. (link to Knotions)

I have been looking at some of the third party patterns that I have recently got my rights back to and working on "new and improving" them for self publishing.  First up will probably be the capelette from December...Ladon which is getting new line by line instructions for previously charted only cables and a chart for the previously written out brioche instructions.

In the meantime I have been swatching some new sock and shawl designs and signed a contract to have solar panels put on my house!

What have you been up to the past couple of months?

Hopefully I will be back to blogging more regularly, but the best way to stay "in the know" of new pattern releases really is to sign up for the newsletter over there on the right hand side of your screen.

Until next time....
