Questions for Me
I am making slow but steady progress with my sweater but oh so much sticking stitch! I’m knitting a row whenever I get a chance to to try and get further on, but 3mm needles are making it slow going. Am being determined though and not allowing myself to cast on anything else until it is finished too which is helping a bit. How is everyone else getting along?
~Resolutions for next year:
For the blog I want: 12 Patterns (2 published) , 12 pairs of socks for soup kitchen, 20 chemo caps for kids(7 finished), spin 2 new fibers (completed 2), after October limit my yarn purchases to $25.00 a month, Knit 12 patterns from my Ravelry queue, finished one shawl/wrap
