I’m a little late with this post, but close enough to halfway 🙂 At the start of the year I set myself some goals to get accomplished this year. Specifically, I planned to knit:– 6 pairs of socks, and – 6 sweatersSo how is it going? Close to on plan, surprisingly! I have done 3… Continue reading 2020 – Halfway Through (Thank God!)
This is the 2020 knitting project bin, which I very confidently filled with the projects for next year. But then I started thinking about it a bit more… I’m still doing roughly the same thing I planned – at least right now I am. But the specifics may be changing. I need to get back… Continue reading Evolving Plan
On my way home from work Monday night, I stopped at a nearby pharmacy to get a flu shot, and while I was there, decided to get a shingles shot as well. As the pharmacist said – “May as well get them both over with!” And moreover, I decided to get them both in the… Continue reading A Shot at Organization
Wow this year is flying by! I normally like to take a look at how I am doing with my crafting plans around mid-year – so this is a little late.

For the focus part,… Continue reading Goal Setting: The Struggle is Real

Around the beginning of this year, having learned my lesson somewhat from last year, I set myself a series of challenges as my knitting goals for 2018. Now that we are a month past the halfway mark, how am I doing? Goal 1 – Do at least one of my big colorwork kits. Done, except… Continue reading 2018 Knitting Goals – Progress Report
Right around this time last year, I boldly declared that 2017 would be my Year of Colorwork. I did 2 small colorwork projects, and then promptly stalled on my first big project for the year, which remains unfinished to this day. 2017 quickly devolved into my Year of Continuous Distraction, with my knitting projects taking… Continue reading Knitting Goals – 2018 edition
