We’re now approaching valentine’s day and I am still going on about new year resolutions! Do you make new year resolutions? I make list of things that I want to do. I try to keep it simple and only include things that are achievable. I plan for the year in October rather than in January. This means that I can check how I am going in January and another time at Chinese Lunar New Year. Which is a great way to keep on track in case you fall off the wagon.
The plan since October 2014:
- complete blue furry cardigan
- complete cream shrug
- spin some brown yarn
- design one bag
- start navy blue cardigan
Have I made any progress?
Blue cardigan
I am still working on the blue furry cardigan. The main part of the cardigan is completed, need to sew up and knit the collar, buttonhole band and button band. Gosh this cardigan is taking a very long time its been in the works for over 2 years, during which time I was busy knitting gifts for friends.
Cream Shrug
This is close to being completed. I have a few more inches to go and have to do the border. This the easy pattern that I have in a little bag which I carry around with and knit on the go.
Brown yarn
I am half way through completing this.
I haven’t even started on the other 2 projects! I will not be very upset if I do not complete these projects, it is my a hobby and I knit when I feel like it. I find I do not enjoy knitting if I push myself to complete items. So I try to make sure that this list is somewhat achievable.
What projects are you doing this year and how far have you progressed?
Happy Lunar New Year!
