Well i have had a bad time with this so far - i finished a pair of socks for my mum only to find that one was way BIGGER than the other so they r in the naughty corner. (Hence no photo)
But ive done a pair of my sisters & am working on these at mo
Finished scarf & hat for mum - decided not to bother for MIL 
& this is Upsy Daisy so far - ive abandoned the poor thing !!!
On the non knitting front im impressed to say that ive nearly finished YAY me !!!!
This has been helped this year by DS2 going off to school full time & me HATING to be at home without him so ive been out a lot 
How u guys doing ??

You may not be making the progress you want to Rosie, but you're getting there! I love the purple socks, what yarn and pattern have you used for them?
Oh, and UpsyDaisy is looking good, but i can understand why you've put off finishing it off, all thos tiny bits to sew up and all those ends to sew in!! 
My Chrimble knitting is doing OK... I have one scarf done, one pair of socks done and two hats and one scarf left to do... they hats are taking more concentration than i can normally manage though and i'm struggling a bit with them!
