None at all...I'm waiting to receive some thread from Herschnerr's that will become a top for my mom and I'm waiting until my daughter loses her pregnancy weight so that I can make her this.

I try not to have more than three going at once, or I go crazy. Right now, I have the 63 Squares CAL, a summer top, and a Project Linus baby blanket. I lost my mind with the baby blanket and am knitting it with size 8 needles, which means it's taking me 5 times longer than if I'd crocheted it--never again. The summer top is out of the 24-hour Crochet book. I, like everyone else, also have a myriad of projects going on in my mind. I already bought the yarn to make myself the "Must Have Blouse" out of the 24-hour Crochet book (it will be perfect for work), and I'm contemplating ordering a kit off Mary Maxim for an afghan for a friend.

Counting on crochet WIP's, I have:

1. Quick and easy Baby blanket, though it's not as quick or as easy as I'd hoped. Maybe my hook is a size too small.

 

2. Easy baby sweater, though I keep getting confused about with the directions. I think it would have been helpful to get more pictures. Maybe it's just me since I'm not used to making clothes.

 

3. Afghan. It's practically done, but I still haven't done the border yet...Not a big fan of doing borders.

 

4. A witch. I just need to make a nose and sew her together (dreading the sewing part).

 

5. A cat. This one has been a WIP for over a year. I think all that's left is sewing it together. I may have an ear or two left too.

 

6. Another Afghan. For this one, I've only made one square out of 48 or so. Actually it's a little small, so I've decided to change hook sizes and count that square as a guage square. Might make it into a potholder or something.

 

I think that's all my crochet WIP's. All other crochet projects are ones that I WANT to start but have yet to do begin.

Hmm..

 

I've got my self-designed "poppin' squares" afghan I'm a bit over half done making the squares for. Still need to figure out what joining method I'll use. Black mixed with very bright jewel-toned colors.

 

I'm working on "Vintage Lace" (Afghans for all seasons, book 2, cover pic) in light raspberry for an afghan swap with my mom.

 

I guess I have a flower afghan from Afghans for all Seasons 1 I started a couple of years ago. I made a bunch of the centers, but have to locate it and start it again. (Forgot about this one)

 

I have Hunter green yarn for a very simple double-thick afghan, Heather grey yarn for a "Cosmopolitan wrap", other yarn... I have more yarn and desired projects than I have time. :hook

Have to admit, I tend to work harder finishing something if its for someone else, unless for my DH, which I can put off 'cause he's so understanding! As for my WIPs or UFOs or whatever you want to call 'em I don't think I want to count them. I'm restarting crocheting this last 6 mo. or so, from a 15 or more year break. And I keep starting new stuff that is in my mind, and then going "Ooohh, THATS cool," and starting that, and then......

I think I'm hopeless.

I currently have 3 WIP's.

I am working on my first graph ghan, the batman logo for hubby. I have finished the graph, now I am dreding tucking in all the ends. I also need to boarder it for about a foot around because it turned out smaller then I had planned. All single crochet is driving me nuts!

I am working on a baby blanket for best friend who is due in October, alot of squares to make and then put together. Still have time on that thank god.

Finally working on a wrap for self.

I do find working with different stiches and different hook sizes helps me not to get board and helps my hands and wrist not cramp up. (Now I sound way older than my 28 years).

Granny square afghan for DH, "that 70's" full length vest, oh :oops and that last granny square slipper I need to sew together. :shrug

:remember

Is that now considered a UFO and not a WIP? :laughroll

I'm gearing up for the Kitchen and Bath Swap so all will be set aside for a bit longer. :hook

I'm afraid to count the sewing projects. :help

Am working on a stole for my neighbors daughter, a Harry Potter scarf for my neighbors son, an afghan for myself (which is now so far back on the burner it may never get finished). I need to make 4 baby blankets, curtains for my kitchen and who knows what else.:thair
