Mini Skein Hexagon Blanket
Pattern: Basic Crochet Hexagon Pattern & Tips from Make Do and Crew Website & YouTube Tutorial
Hook: F (3.75 mm)
Yarn: Mini skeins from 2022 agirlandherwool Advent Calendar, 24 Days of Cheer Swap minis + other scraps/swap yarn
Ravelry Project Page
I've been closing the end of each hexagon with this join- link to Instagram post
4 rounds per hexagon.
3.75 inches each. Likely need over 300
Twin sized blanket is 60x80 inches. 17x22 hexis- 374.
Over 160 full hexagons done now.
I washed all of my finished hexis (that already had ends woven in), in the washing machine on delicate inside a lingerie bag. The lingerie bag is important because with small pieces, you can lose pieces into your machine and cause problems.
Results:
5 of them came apart at the join on the final round.
No bleeding or fading.
No shrinking.
I'm glad I did this so I could get the bad ones out of the mix before I seam them.
Learned double magic circle from this YouTube video. The trick is to know how to pull both loops to tighten the loop.

I’ve had issues with this too. My plan for this blanket is to wash all of the hexagons first before seaming together to try to weed out anything that’s not secure. I’ve also thought of a new idea for knotting mine closed because I’m holding yarn double. I’ll share a video for that soon! Ninja Turtle Socks

Cascade Heritage Socks
Pattern: OMG Heel Socks by Megan Williams ($5 knitting pattern available on Ravelry )
Yarn: Cascade Heritage Prints in Colorway 111 Aqua
Needles: US 1.5 (2.5 mm)
I finished these before the last episode, but I didn't talk about the colorwork I did before each toe. One sock says "just" and the other says "breathe."
 
Mom's Jean Marie Shawl

Held fingering yarn doubled and went up a needle size from what pattern calls for. Result is a slightly larger size than the original which was exactly what I wanted.

Needles: US 1.5 (2.5 mm)
Cast on 60 stitches and worked 1/1 rib for 14 rounds. Knit about 2 inches and then reduced to 56 stitches (decreases like a toe- done at the beginning and end of each half of the sock).
I am working on the 2 of them in tandem. Each on their own magic loop.
 
Brainstorming
 
No-Purl Ribbed Blanket by Purl Soho. Click here for the Ravelry Pattern or here for the Purl Soho website. I heard about this on the Knit Ink Podcast/YouTube Channel hosted by Natasha and her mother Petra.
 
I've been very tempted by the Leah Cowl by Susy Knotsosquare. Granny Stripe Crochet cowl with triangle point on front. Calls for DK weight yarn.  Crochet pattern available for a little more than $5 US. Check it out on Ravelry or Etsy. You can also check out her Padme Cowl which is similar but different. Details available on Susy's website.  
 
Generally just thinking about how when a project doesn't have an imminent deadline, I'm far less motivated to pick it up. "What's the point?" is often what comes to mind. It's an interesting thing to consider because the very same project, given a due-date will often excite me to pick up. Does this happen to you?

Contrast heel- mini skein in a beautiful solid teal. I did a little colorwork on the foot that I'll share more later.

Yarn: Mini skeins from 2022 agirlandherwool Advent Calendar, 24 Days of Cheer Swap minis + other scraps/swap yarn

4 rounds per hexagon
51+ hexagons done now. All ends woven in!
 
Chevron Scrap Blanket
Pattern: Chevron Scrap Blanket by Maria's Blue Crayon (free crochet pattern) available on Ravelry & the Maria's Blue Crayon Website.
This pattern presumes you already know the c2c crochet technique.
Yarn: Knit Picks Brava Worsted in White & Tranquil (light green), Lion Brand Pound of Love in Pastel Pink and Loops & Threads Snuggly Wuggly Big! in colorway Soft Lilac
Hook: J (6.0 mm)
Ravelry Project Page (I crocheted one of these in summer 2020- click here for that Ravelry Project Page)
For help learning the Corner to Corner Crochet method you could check out this free Ravelry Download from Lauri Bolland or this video tutorial from Lion Brand on YouTube.
1st Strip is finished progress. 11 squares wide. Each section is 11 squares tall. Green, white, pink, white, purple, white.
Some of this is spirit yarn from my friend Kim's SIL's stash that I received after she passed away (purple). I'm not sure where the pink yarn came from, but it might have been my Nana's stash. It feels great to put it to good use.
 
 
Musselburgh Hat
Pattern: Musselburgh by Ysolda Teague ($7.77 US/ 6 GBP knitting pattern available on Ravelry or on Ysolda's website)
Yarn: fingering weight yarn from stash in a denim blue (can't find the ballband)
Needles: US 2 (2.75) circular- 32 in (magic loop for beginning & end of project & US 2 (also called US 2.5) 3.0 mm 16-inch circular for the body of the hat
Ravelry Project Page
Size: Adult Medium
I found that I liked working this hat in the round. Purchased Addi Rocket Lace Turbo 16 inch needles in US 2 (but it turns out its technically a US 2.5 or a 3.0 mm needle- not a 2.75 mm needle like I use for the cast on). The difference isn't all that noticeable but it was a little frustrating. 
Progress check- I have finished the increases and have knit about 4 inches.
Plan: Switch colors half way through. I have a lighter blue skein from On the Round that I purchased at Wicked Good Yarns in Rockland, MA that I want to use to make it a reversible hat.
 
 
Solstice Socks
Pattern: OMG Heel Socks by Megan Williams ($5 knitting pattern available on Ravelry )
Yarn: Knit Picks Felici in the Solstice colorway
Needles: US 1.5 (2.5 mm)
Ravelry Project Page
Progress- turned heel on first sock. Cast on the second sock.
 
Brainstorming
 
My Grandmother called to ask me to knit her another Jean Marie Shawl (named for her). You can find this knitting pattern for $6 on Ravelry & LoveCrafts.
 
Here's the story:
My grandmother called me in mid-January 2023 saying she needed to place an order. I thought she wanted something from Amazon.
She told me very time she wears her Jean Marie Shawl to dinner at her residence she gets tons of compliments. All of her friend
