Knitting ☆ Misc

I went and rearranged my Ravelry queue. Had about 13 pages of stuff in there, and a lot of it weren't things I had specific plans for. For a while, I was adding anything that looked even vaguely interesting, and it got a little out of hand.
Now, it's down to 3 pages - 90 things. Which is still way too many! BUT at least it's all stuff that I might conceivably knit some day. And I rearranged it so that the patterns in my library, particularly the ones I paid for, are toward the top.
This might help things a bit. ;)
Not that I've made much progress on current projects, mind you. These days, when I get home, the last thing I want to do is sit around some more. Argh! But at least I'm nearly through the long knit section in the shawl I'm making (Rosewater).
The yarn I'm using for it is kind of hideous, but. Well. It would look hideous on anything. At least this way, I'm getting some practice with this particular pattern, right? It makes sense to use a yarn I'm not very attached to if I'm trying something new. ;) I don't do a lot of patterns that involve eyelets and lace techniques and so on, so... yes... Best to use the weirdly-coloured one that's been in my stash for years, first.
(If I have to unravel this thing for a third time, I'm gonna scream.)
