Week 9 of YOP 14

New month equals new goals. I did have extra crafting time because I was sick for at least half of the week.

Knitting Plans/Goals

September goals: finish Jeffrey Pine Cardigan (actually completed on 8/31), finish Spooky Roller socks, add 3 mini skeins (#13, 14 & 15) from the Christmas in July Advent project of the Anthology Throw, finish the orange Seafarer's vest which is a charity knit, knit 2 hats for charity and finish the Knitmas in July shawl. I also want to cast on a few new projects. I plan on at least 1 new cast on for the month.

Update: Being ill meant I had a lot of "extra' crafting time. I was able to finish the Jeffrey Cardigan actually in the month of August (right up to the wire on the 31st). I did a yarn update yesterday with all the gory details.

Sewing Plans/Goals

September goal: I would like to sew with some of my collection of Double Brushed Poly (DBP). I want to make 4 dresses.

Update: Nothing DBP has been sewn yet, but I did finish a sweater dress using sweater knit from last month.

Embroidery/Cross Stitch Plans/Goals

September goal: work at least 1 hour a week on the project.

Update: Completed the first hour of the month.

Crochet Plans/Goals

September goals: Finish the Taylor Swift inspired crochet dress. Cast on a new crochet project , not selected yet, but I have ideas.

Update: The body of the dress is complete, now just working on the finishing and weaving in yarn end after yarn end.

Cricut Plans/Goals

September goal: complete 4 projects with a Halloween theme

Update: I have been downloading Halloween cards, just not made any yet.

Misc Goals/Plans

I will be pausing trying to set other goals for the month. This year returning to work has kicked my butt. I do not seem to be able to work a complete week. I have had to take time off for medical appointments and then I became ill and had to miss 2 days in a row. I am hoping to get my feet back under me and work at a steady pace. It seems like I take 3 steps forward and then 2 steps backwards each week.
