2010 Knitting List

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

On a whim, I made a list of all the projects I want to do and when I might possibly do them over the next year. OMG! There’s a whole year’s worth. Scary.

The links are for the pattern entries in Ravelry so you’ll only see them if you are logged in there.

January
Pink/purple bear for daughter – must use yarn from stash for this and decide on pattern
pink socks for daughter – have some pink I could use here
Fuzzy Feet slippers – maybe use leftovers
Mystery Sock KAL starts 2 days before the daughter’s birthday. Ugh! What? Was I thinking? Ummm… no.

February
Finish my meribo scarf?
Finish mosaic socks
Finish Farmer’s Market Bag?

March
Celtic braids socks– have yarn
Flying Spaghetti Monster – have yarn

April
knitting break? Want to finish calligraphy/illumination projects. Not that a month is enough time to finish. :\

Advent Stocking Calendar Day 2

Day 2

Day 2

Here’s the redo of what would have been the first advent stocking. Today it held bubbles, study lead on the Monroe Doctrine and an “eat out” coupon.

Sam settled on HuHot which usually I can tolerate with the help of Benedryl. Tonight however it’s taken Benedryl, GaxEx and ginger tea. Sigh. Don’t think I’ll be doing that again. :\

I’m also thinking that I won’t be able to get all 24 stockings done this year. Maybe I’ll do a few and make do with those then keep working on one a month so they’ll be ready for next year.

Found a great study tool today! Quizlet.com It links to Facebook too. A member on the Oerberg list set up a bunch of stuff there in support of Lingua Latina Familia Romana. It is free. Woot!

I am off to knit, drink tea and rest my knee.
