Happy New Year!
A new year brings with it loads of new things.
Resolutions, lists, calendar events, birthdays, anniversary, diets, yarn… the list goes on and on.
I’ve never been one who really makes many resolutions… mostly, because I know that I will cheat. So as I write this post today- I have still yet to come up with any resolutions… except with my knitting.
My knitting resolutions are as follows…
1) Knit something for myself using my stash yarn.
2) Only buy yarn for specific projects.
3) Learn to crochet.
4) Knit for charity, once a month.
So, now that I have listed my resolutions- I should probably tell you how I have already decided I will get around them…
1) I will decided that nothing in my stash is good enough for me. (Translate- trip to the yarn store to buy more yarn.)
2) If I keep joining traveling scarf groups I will need to continue to find just the right yarns for someone else’s scarf. (Translate- trip to the yarn store to buy more yarn.)
3) I will have to shop for crochet hooks, and while shopping, I will decide that the yarn I have is really better suited to knitting, not crochet. (Translate- trip to the yarn store to buy more yarn.)
4) Charity is all about quantity, I will use all of my good yarns knitting for charity and will have nothing left to choose from to knit for myself. (Translate- trip to the yarn store to buy more yarn.)
So- there we have…. Resolutions and cheats. Guess I know what my resolutions really need to be…….
