Rogue

I have officially finished all the knitting portions of Rogue.  The last sleeve came off the needles about fifteen minutes ago.  Woo Hoo.  I am feeling a great sense of accomplishment but also a bit lost.  What now?  What project?

Here’s Rogue at her current stage of completion:

Other projects that are yet to be completed are:

The gift…. will be completed upon arrival of more yarn.

The crooked cable socks…. currently languishing in a small knitting bag that has been carefully ignored as it rested on the kitchen table for over a month.

Projects I currently have yarn for:
A pair of footie socks for me (like the ones I knit for Dana over the summer)
Enough sock yarn to provide warm tootsies for a small army.
Yes… that concludes the inventory of my "stash". I don’t have much of one. ( I do have a lot of red heart and lion brand stuff that I use for practicing stitches but they aren’t exactly what I want to make a nice sweater out of.)

Tomorrow I’ll put Rogue in a wool bath and set ‘er out on the blocking board.  First, must find a place for blocking that is safe from the toddler.  This will be the extra bedroom on top of the extra bed.  But… there’s a small problem with that plan.  The extra bedroom has been utilized as The Package Wrapping Department for Casa de Wannabe for about a month and the extra bed may not be easy to locate.  We shall see.
