WIP (Work-In-Progress) Wednesday!

You know, every time I spell out "Wednesday" I have to say it in my head "Wed-nes-day"....
Anyways, on to my current projects!


Currently I'm working on Octopus #2 for a friend of mine. Instead of a yellow bow, this little gal will have a light pink bow.
Here is the head of the little lady Octopus



The light pink bow in progress.




On Monday, I decided I wanted to take up knitting. I love knitted garments. I bought a couple knitting magazines to look at while at work and after looking through them...I want to knit them all. /facepalm
Sooooo, since I need to learn how to knit (to make said garments)...I'm teaching myself! Here I'm working on a simple dishcloth because lets face it, I'm in Houston and it's hot as blazes. I don't need a scarf. Plus, I'd rather not knit just to...knit. I wanted to make something useful!
My only problem? I had to keep ripping it out because it looked super wonky! In the picture I'm only on the 2nd row(?) and I've had to put it aside to work on some other crocheted pieces for family and friends.





 I got silly with the camera and just started snapping away. I thought I would spare y'all EVERY picture I took. *grins*





And here is my Work-in-Progress cat. Does that count?! His name is Titan and he's a booger.




OH OH OH!! PLUS, I got this bad boy in the mail today. Can't wait to whip up some of these motifs and make an afghan...because I need more warm things in this tropical climate (super sarcasm).

 









What are you working on this week?
