Today, I've finished up two cat blankets, both of which turned out to be the desired finished size once I'd finished the current row*. I've steam blocked one (and let it dry), and got halfway through setting up the second one for blocking before I got interrupted.
What this means is that I'm in the market for a new project. I'm thinking about this rather cute urchin (free pattern at ravelry), but I'm not sure what I'd do with it once I'd made it. I've downloaded the pattern, and the same artist's tubular coral pattern, and I'll see if inspiration strikes. I've a vague idea that I might see if I can make it into a pin cushion, given I've got some bits and pieces for filling pincushions, and then haven't done anything with them!
*once they are nearly done, I measure, put them in the traveling craft basket, do a row or two, repeat. So I often have more than one travelling with me, because I'm often swapping between projects.
