MAPLE LEAF the Sixth and MAPLE LEAF the Seventh

Two of the Seven MAPLE LEAF Shawls knit by greenegirl between February and September 2014.

Last week was the week of all the appointments.  Most weeks, I only leave the house a couple times, mostly for errands.  But last week, I was out every day and for 3 of those days I was out of the house for the entire day.  I did get crafting done and turned in for HPKCHC classes by the end of the month, but I did not write blog posts on my crafting.  The completed crafting included two more MAPLE LEAF Shawls.

WIP Wednesday, September 17, 2014

This morning I had a routine doctor’s appointment.  After the appointment, I scheduled another appointment for October 1.  The receptionist repeatedly said, “August 1,” even after I clarified that she meant October.  This happened at least 3 times.  It was confusing me, but at the same time I understand her perspective.  How can it possibly be September?  And halfway through September?  And a Wednesday again?  The good news is that I’ve gotten a lot of knitting done this week.  Seven hours on a plane meant lots of progress on my socks.  I can never sleep on a plane, and my seat was the only one in my visual range with the overhead light on for our red-eye home from San Francisco!

August 2014 Wrap Up

Since I’ve basically been on vacation for the last 3 weeks, I never posted a wrap up post for August!  HPKCHC break months are always a little odd for me.  I push hard to finish projects during term, and am glad to have a bit of a breather during the break month.  At the same time, I want to clean up anything left from the last term and prepare for the upcoming term.  This particular break month skewed more towards the taking a breather and less towards cleaning up and preparing!

HPKCHC Fall 2014 Term

I did not do in-depth planning for the upcoming term, like I usually do during the break month.  We are two weeks into the term already.  I need a plan!  If you aren’t familiar with the Harry Potter Knit Crochet House Cup, or would like a reminder on how it works, visit my HPKCHC Spring 2014 Term blog post, which describes the game in detail.
