Summary: Hello everyone. Where did September go?<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Yarndale<br> <br> I didn't record any audio at <a href="http://yarndale.co.uk/">Yarndale</a>, as it was all a bit overwhelming to be honest. I really shouldn't go to shows when I'm a bit tired and wired, as I buy way more stuff than I need or can process into anything else! It was lovely to meet up with fellow podcasters Jo from <a href="http://shinybees.com/">Shinybees</a> and Aimee from <a href="http://knit.spin.cake/">Knit.Spin.Cake</a>. For a full sharing of my goodies, please listen to <a href="http://shinybees.com/2013/09/29/episode-12-out-and-about-at-yarndale/">Episode 12</a> of the Shinybees podcast.<br> <br> <br> <br> Finished Objects<br> <br> <br> <br> In the near two months since I recorded last, I have finished just <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/talesfromtheplain/waldhaus-test">one sock</a>, a test knit. Pathetic!<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> On the Needles and Hooks<br> <br> During the second week of the holiday I cast on a <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/talesfromtheplain/stripes-on-a-train">pair of socks</a> using the sock stripe yarn from <a href="http://www.theknittinggoddess.co.uk/">The Knitting Goddess</a> that I picked up at Fibre East. These are currently stalled not far from the cuff and susequently mislaid (eek!). <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> When I got back from holiday I decided to join in the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/discuss/aplayfulday-podcast/2652942/1-25">Mystery Sock-A-Long</a> on the <a href="http://aplayfulday.blogspot.co.uk/">APlayfulDay</a>podcast group, but haven't got far on those because I can't seem to pick up the lace pattern easily (limited details <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/talesfromtheplain/lets-play">here</a>). These are in the same project bag as the stripey socks, ergo they too are missing. Then at the end of August I cast on a <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/talesfromtheplain/chevron-pullover">Chevron Pullover</a> in Noro Kureyon as part of the <a href="http://stitchedtogetherpodcast.blogspot.co.uk/">Stitched Together</a> podcast's Craft-Library-a-long. Completed the sleeves within a fortnight but have now slowed down due to limited bandwidth. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> On the coach back form Yarndale last week I started crocheting an <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/talesfromtheplain/iris-crochet-scarf">Iris scarf</a> in <a href="http://www.thenaturaldyestudio.com/">NDS</a> Dazzle HT as part of a kit I bought but this photo was taken once it crashed to a halt over the pale greeny-blue top left. This has now been removed!<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Last night I also picked up the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dorothy-short-sleeved-crochet-cardi">Dorothy</a> in Sublime merino DK that I bought with my prize winnings form Thame Show. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Crafting ADHD?
