UFO August Dropout
I really wanted to get things done. I really wanted to finish those nagging projects that have been hanging around for months (years, in a couple of cases). But I couldn't find the yarn that I need to finish item #2 on my list. It only needs about 30 minutes of finishing work, but I can't find the yarn. If it were just seams, I'd find another yarn and deal, but it's embellishments, and it has to match the other one. And then I got sock yarn in. And joined a granny square swap. And finally put together my carders, and realized that making rolags and spinning from them is the easiest thing ever. So it's not like I have nothing finished. I just recently started most of the things that I've finished.
Updated list:
1. Mohair Sweater -Technically done, but I need to frog and re-do some of it when I get it back on Monday.
2. "It's a Secret #2" - Needs the missing yarn to be complete.
3. "It's a Secret #3" - I have the first half about done (I need to do about 5 minutes of seaming, why is that final touch always the hardest to do?) and the second half not yet begun.
4. Mug Rug/Potholder - I actually made a Mug Rug and a Potholder from my handspun. There was more than I thought. Needs to be blocked, and then this will be the first actually complete knitted project for UFO August! I'm just waiting to finish a couple of other things as I like to do a lot of washing at once.
5. Autumn Gloves - Not yet frogged, haven't found a good pattern yet. I may make Knucks, actually, as that seems like a good pattern!
6. Autumn Scarf - Still not touched, as the gloves need to be finished first. Oh well!
I don't believe that the people who will be recieving the It's a Secret gifts read this, so I'll post a picture for you:

Yup, Pocket Creatures. I'm making a set of two of each. The red one is #1, and it's 100% done. The purple one is #2, and I can't find the orange yarn for the hair to finish the second one. The blue one is #3, and it needs seaming on it's bottom. I need to cast on for it's mate too.
