 ...but I think this might be more.

Spinning: Turning a skein of this (in the, not pictured, fuschia/plum/turquoise color scheme) into something that averages 20 wraps per inch (for comparison purposes, the yarn for the sock below comes out about 12 WPI). Might ply it, haven't decided. Also have a few colors of Tuff Puff kicking around (I seem to end up getting roving yarn to use not-as-intended for spinning) and a few balls of yarn made from them, which I wouldn't refer to as a WIP exactly bc there's not a particular plan, and it's not going while the other is going bc I only have the one spindle, but...it's kinda sitting here looking at me.

Knitting: Pretty much exclusively loom knit as opposed to needle knit, since turning up with carpal tunnel (ergonomic needles are much more challenging conceptually that crochet hooks or loom knitting hooks bc the yarn goes down the needle in knitting). Wanted to be able to take up sock making for serious zoning out purposes, tried to fire up the ol' interchangeable circular needle set, which didn't end well, but it turns out Flexee-Loom Bitty works with Kroy Socks yarn but you really need to make sure the right side of the loom bits is facing out if you're going to purl such as part of a rib (the groove makes everything easier, but purling in particular is a female of genus canidae without it).

Crochet: *horrified giggling*

• Hyperbolic coral -- green/magenta/chartreuse/purple ombre with fed fake-fur strand stuff tucked in to stick out on the underside -- I was further along on this but had tried using hdc instead of dc and it was just not ruffling up, and set it aside a while back; unravelled it to start over maybe about a week ago
• Amigurimi cat -- TBH I'm finishing this up to get it over with; I was in a pattern testing group and there were things not shaping up right for me about this pattern, there were a couple rounds I tried and unravelled so many times with pre-diagnosis carpal tunnel and the counts were just not working and I asked for help then gave up and got kicked out of the group (and finding a group is hard when you're well out of school and your interests are niche and your local area is, TBH, the kind of place people like you try to get out of). Shelved it for quite some time, got tired of seeing it shoved into the corner of my stash, finally decided to finish and donate it so at least someone will get something out of it.
• Corner-to-corner cardigan -- had started making it up out of this and the plan was for it to be that all over, but they stopped making it before I could stock up enough. Got a few balls from eBay and I'm striping in this (the blueberry color) to stretch it. Hoping to get it done by spring, so...
• Tote bag -- with this many things to make up, it sure would be handy if I had an easier way to keep something handy to work on, so I grabbed a couple balls of pretty standard cotton worsted, one solid teal and one teal/white twist and held them together, made a long oval, then started sc'ing up the sides. Then I realized that was absolutely eating yarn so decided to make a bit at each end just the twist, and a big panel in the middle sort of mesh-lacy also out of the twist, bc I have more of the twist than the solid teal. Then even that was going through it pretty fast, especially with stranding in the solid bc having it in there for reinforcement all over is more fit for purpose than tucking in ends at the edges all the way up of what's going to amount to attached straps. So...ordered more solid yarn (of a few different colors to make something like a gradient).

Weaving: got a warp about half put on for what's intended to eventually be throw pillow covers, made out of leftovers from this. It's been sitting half-put-on toooooo long bc warping a loom is not a whilst falling over ded type thing.
