I have completed the Checkerboard Twist sock that I had on needles (the mate is to wait for March), and I have very nearly decided to frog the Raspberry Sorbet socks (I kind of thing that they should die in a fire. This is why I think I might frog them.)
Arabella is coming along very nicely. I'm in the last repeat of the main lace section, and then it is just the edging to do.
See? That's progress.
I'm just... SIGH. Over it. Over all of it. I want to cast on new socks, and a scarf that I'm designing in my head, and two or three hats and...
I am going to be vicious in my project culling before all is said and done. I think it is finally time to face the fact that I just don't actually WANT to knit all this stuff. I have ennui. ENNNNNUUUUUUUUUUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII.
I should come back with pictures of great piles of yarn from all of the stuff I've frogged.
Here's an updated list:
- Ab-Fab Afghan
Winter Marigold (current sock club sock)—Finished- Dr. Who Scarf
- Arabella — ~75% Finished

By the time the 28th rolls around and you have the final revised list of items in progress, you'll look back to the original list and declare yourself a BAMF. You're making fantastic progress and I admire your determination. Awesome is when you keep going in spite of the ennui. Awesome is when you make the difficult choices about what to frog or fling instead of letting these projects sit in unloved limbo for another year.
February will not last. You started with 25. You're down to ten or fewer, depending on how many projects the next post represents. February is only half over and you've reduced the number of projects by MORE THAN HALF.
That, my dear friend, is pretty wicked awesome.
