Hello Friends!
Countdown to 2014: 3 days!
The New Year is fast approaching and this is the time of the
year that I like to reflect on what is working and what is not working and where I would
like to improve. Some of the new
accomplishments in my knitting this year were knitting mittens and a hat set,
knitting a headband, knitting some items to sell to family and friends and
learning to knit the raspberry stitch. I
loved learning these new things in 2013 and I hope to learn even more in
2014.
My New Year’s resolutions in knitting are:

3. Knit another pair of mittens
These mittens are adorable! I would love to knit them. I knitted a pair of mittens this year but I would love to have more practice.

I want to knit a pair of socks this year. I have not really given this a real try yet and would love to learn the proper way to knit a sock.

5. Try following a pattern

I don't generally make new year resolutions as I know I'd get distracted and not keep them, but I love your idea of knitting goals. You've chosen such fun projects too, so I look forward to following your progress and achievements. Wishing you a very happy, healthy and creative new year ahead :-)

Lisa, I think those are fantastic goals and I bet you accomplish each one. My goal this year is to make several sweaters, and to finish an African Flower baby blanket I started back in April.
ReplyDeleteHugs to you and Happy New Year,

All I've ever stitched are caps and scarves. I'd love to take a formal class on how to make a sweater. Experimenting with different stitches is lots of fun and addictive! Have a safe and happy New Year, Jan
ReplyDeleteThank you Jan for your comment! I have knitted a lot of scarves and hats myself so I want to take it to the next level this year, taking a class is a great idea to get the one on one help and guidance. I should look into that as well. Happy New Year !
