This month, I want to finish spinning the Moonstone and Yarn Wench rovings, plus finish the Tide Walker socks. I joined the Tour de Fleece spin-along, so that will help me get the spinning done! As for my next knitting project, I'll have to decide what to tackle next once I get those Tide Walkers done!
