Taking Stock

I’m a procrastinator. I always have been and I’d like to think that it’s worked well for me. However, Christmas is looming. I’ve put off rounding up all of the Christmas knitting I’ve done so far and taking stock. Last night I pulled everything out and looked at it all.

Finished:

-5 dishcloths (need to weave in the ends)

-1 pair of Fetching fingerless gloves (need to weave in the ends and mail next week)

-about 6 small sock ornaments (I need to put some kind of hanging device on 4 of them)

Need to do by Dec. 21:

-2 more dishcloths

-at least one more pair of Fetching

Need to have done by Dec. 25:

-Josh’s socks (I’m on the foot of the second sock)

I’m thinking about doing:

-a pair of socks for LouLa (Need to be done by Dec. 25)

-sock ornaments for all nine of my kids at school (I have an extra ornament, so in theory I have a head start on them, but they would need to be done by Dec. 21)

Making lists always makes me feel better. I can do the Fetching and the dishcloths over the weekend, especially if I start on the dishcloths this week. I can do a sock ornament in an evening. I can put off finishing Josh’s socks until the weekend of the 22nd.

Well, it’s possible, right?
