Knitting Report Card

I have two big projects on my needles now. Knitty's Dahlia for my sister and Berroco's Caroline for my mom. Dahlia was somewhat easy to work with and i am at the skirt part now. The only down part with it was the increase method the designer chose, i couldnt wrap my head around it so i ended up with our beloved kfb instead which thankfully came out cute so no stress over it. However Berroco's caroline tank was a pain to begin with. The piece should be work in pieces but i didnt like it. So i changed it to work in the round and i doubled the yarn to cut back the knitting time (thicker the yarn smaller the numbers to cast on..). I have to finish these two projects by february so this means no more ufos aside. Ugh..
