Year of Projects: Week 37

What wonderful progress I have made on my Stitch Surfer socks. I didn't finish the second sock like I wanted but that's okay with me. 

I'm pretty sure I can finish the sock quite quickly. I already have the yarn to make another pair.

I finally got my second bag from KnittersBag. Took a bit longer to get to my house this time but that's okay. I'm think I'm alright for bags for now. I think my future purchasing will be for stash building.

Isn't amazing when you find out how doable a project really is? There has been this fingering weight sweater I have been wanting to do since last summer and I have been putting off even thinking about it since it was going to be a lot of yarn and I didn't have the requirements.  I was reading something about Elizabeth Zimmerman's book, Knitting Without Tears, which led into her revolutionizing how locked into a pattern you have to be. It made me think about this sweater. I looked up the yardage requirement for the sweater and much to my surprise, I can get it done within 3 skeins; leaving me with enough yarn to make a pair of socks with the remains. For less than $80, including shipping directly from the dyer, I can make the sweater I want plus a pair of socks. I think I might have finalized my summer project.
