Wind/Water/Salt Chapters 39-51: Still need to take up comments and revise.
Persephone (probably not its real name): Continued to think thoughts.
Short Stories: After posting that short story from last month onto the workshop, I picked one of those short stories I'd started and forced a plot onto it.

Knitting
- Cathar (self). Started month with two inches done above the armholes. Listening to audiobooks, I finished the fair isle portion, cut the steeks, and set up and knit the neckline. Just the endless finishing now.
- Blushing Cloud (Knitty S/S24). Started the month with (still) three inches of back done. Socks take priority.
- Elbrus socks (Knitty first fall 2024). Finished.
- Elbrus socks II. Started the first.
- Pole shorts (Joan McGowan-Michael). I knitted these several years ago, but the crotch was too narrow so I rarely wore them. I still had a bit of yarn so I added a couple of inches, much more reasonable now. I will wear them for pole.
Sashiko project: Nothing.
Ruffle skirt: Nothing.
Purple Romper: The real problem that kept me from working on this was fear of running out of fabric. And also cutting. Feeling brave one day, I cut the sides so I could put it on, and realized it wasn't that bad, but that still I didn't really have enough hip room. I devised a plan to fix that, but unfortunately it didn't involve actually understanding how sewing is different from knitting so I'm not entirely happy. Maybe I can cover the worst bits with patch pockets?
