I thought it about time I returned, I know its been a while and it has been far longer than I had planned. So I return with a familiar confession.
I have come to realise that I am actually not as clever as I like to think and so this post is about my PHD….Projects Half Done! I much prefer this to the acronym WIP (works in progress) as PHD sounds so much more positive and well….lets be frank; what I am about to show you is not in progress. Not even by any stretch of the imagination! Abandoned may be a better description.
So, first out of the box is the baby blanket awaiting the hooking of one final square and then construction. So close to a finish, but I need some more cotton.
Then there is this linen stitch blanket…I abandoned hooking because I felt my design may be a bit to fussy…I’m undecided. Do I continue or rip it back and reclaim the wool?….I’ve done that before.
Then there is my knitting loom project, a sumptuous alpaca cowl…I really must restart this…if I can remember how to that is!
The rainbow V stitch blanket is still on the go, not abandoned at all but most definitely a PHD!
And it is with this in mind I need you all to do me a small favour…if you don’t mind that is. If you ever read my words that might even hint I am going to study again then I would like you to hit me over the head with something very heavy!!!

I love the way you’ve called these projects! I have been thinking of doing a similar post, but got too embarrassed when counting all the half-done things. With your new definition for them, I might do the post after all!

Love the squares! And don’t worry … I’m just back from a crafty break as well and re-starting or continuing projects or starting new ones!

I won’t lie I thought you’d signed yourself up for a PhD for a second!
Lovely baby blanket! It’s going to be so pretty 🙂
I do like the linen stitch blanket the colours are lovely, it would be a shame to undo all that work??
I promise you I have a brick ready for you!!! Xx

How are you going to join your baby blanket? I was determined NOT to make another blanket …but after seeing your beautiful squares I don’t think I’ll be in denial much longer …another blanket is a must LOL

Thank you for your kind words. I have not got as far as planning how to join, but nothing fancy I shouldn’t think. Xx

I think I may rename my projects PHDs – it does make you sound clever! I remember the years of craftlessness which were my studying years (apart from knitting one much needed cardigan) . There are sadly only 24 hours in a day and sometimes non crafty stuff has to take priority. I love all your PHDs especially the almost finished baby blanket – it’s stunning. 🙂

LOL! It’s ok. The projects will be there when you are ready to continue, fuss with, throw out, reclaim or finish 🙂 All are great projects.
