I Am Hooked On Lace Knitting

It's TRUE....I am Hooked on Lace Knitting....BUT Wait.....There's More.....
More Projects that have me HOOKED Up!

Projects....Bags and Baskets FULL of Projects!
All lined up in my Sewing/Knitting Room....at least I'm an Organized WIP Knitter!
Yep! I've decided to GiveIn To StartArexia!

I have finished several projects....like this Red-Black-Tan Bag and the Teal and Green Bag, too!
Both are now holding Just Started Projects!
I've always been a Multi-Tasker, so I've decided to Go With the GetErStarted Urge
 that strikes when I see a Yarn and Pattern that is sooooo Irrrresssitble!

Like this AWESOME 'Lovely Leaf Lace' Scarf. 
The pattern is from Purl Bee....HERE is the Link.
I'm knitting with Red Heart Soft worsted weight on #7 straights.  The lace pattern is a 16 row repeat for 6 times and then it is lots of Stockinette for the length and a repeat of the lace pattern for the other end. 
I have a plan to Let Bonda do the Stockinette. 
 She's sooooo much faster at Stockinette and she likes doing that boring stuff....I like doing the Lace Stuff!
(Bonda is my Knitting Machine....just in case you haven't met her)

The Progressive Lace Scarf is progressing.  I'm really lovin' this scarf. 
It's a project that keeps me interested with the 6 different lace patterns.
This pattern was designed by our Concho Valley Knitters Guild President,
and presented to the members as a program back in February.

Another FINISHED BAG now holds the Zepher Shawl. 
It's knitting right along and is a Grab The Bag and Go Project. 

Here's a Just Started Project for SusanB.  This is WONDERFUL Wool Chunky Yarn.
It's going to be a Yarn Basket Bag, and will probably be Felted!
This is also a Purl Bee Pattern.  It's HERE if you'd like a Quick Crochet Project.
You can see several I have made HERE.

In my last post...Yarn and Pansies...Pretty Powerful Stuff...I told ya about the Pie Shawl Class.
We had our first lesson last Thursday, April 7th and this is my START!
I have to tell you though that I did start it TWICE!
I'm PurtyPumped about this Lace Shawl.  I'm finished with Part I and ready for this Thursday's Class and Part II....I'm thinkin' there may be all the way to Part Kabillion!

Here it is with the latest increase and on larger circular. 
 Have I mentioned how Hooked I Am on Lace Knitting?

What's THIS?
My Bagged Sweater Challenge and TWO Empty Bags!!!
Guess I'd better take a StartAnother Pattern Pill....make that TWO....wait...make that THREE!
One for each Empty Bag and One to Get Started Back on the Sweater
