| Does anyone else out there have knitting related New Years Resolutions? Mine is to buy no more yarn until I have finished all lapsed projects, and sold off the yarn I am not using. Love to hear yours!!! |

2005 was my year to finish ALL unfinished projects. I'm proud to say that as soon as I sew bead eyes on the last felted fish...I've done it! Even the baby blanket I started for my youngest son, who is 12 now (horrified look) is done. I guess it will keep for a grandchild. lol
Keri, you can do it, too! I'm pulling for you!
So in 2006 I take on learning to knit gloves, mastering entrelac techniques and knitting for myself more. Oh, DH just reminded me that 2006 is also the year I finally knit a sweater for him. It really isn't that *I* was unwilling...it was about him not being able to settle on a pattern!

I resolve not to stay up so late knitting, and to get to bed earlier (wish me luck).

New Years resolutions...hmmmm. Well, to knit more of course. To win the lottery...so I can buy more yarn...so I can knit more.
To learn to use my stupid fabulous new digital camera.
...and most importantly, to find a way to knit while eating Godiva chocolates, not exercise and still lose weight.
I'll let you in on the secret when I figure it out!

I have an ongoing resolution - get my entire life in order. Been working on this over the past year.
This includes organizing my yarn and spinning wool, and as Marg said: "knit down my stash," or sell the excess. And make time to practice hand embroidery and needle felting and I want to sew up a jacket from a great pattern I bought at the sewing expo.
I won't even mention the work-related projects or the home maintenance and improvement projects..........

hmm, I always vow to finish UFO's, but then one of you mentions a pattern, a fabulous yarn, a new process(to me), or an accessory that I probably can't live without and those vows go out the window as I scramble to buy and do.
Maybe I need to vow to stay away from here until I get some things finished? Nah. Go ahead - enable away!!!

| I'm with Sticks and String. Finish all projects! I've lost count of how many projects I have lying around. I also have to join those trying to knit down their stash. I think the first will help with the second, though. |
