Welcome 2011

The new year is here and as usual some some resolutions. I did some knitting ones last year that were an epic fail. I wanted to finish every project I started, fail. I want to complete a pair of socks, half fail (I did one and never finished). I wanted to get more people involved in the Knitting Club, we dissolved the club this past semester so fail. But because it is tradition I am going to make some knitting resolutions again, and see if I can actually stick to them this year ;)

Knitting Resolutions 2011:
1) Finish a pair of socks (try to get finish some from the past year)
2) Post and sell items on Etsy
3) Be successful in selling items on Etsy
4) Write more of my own patterns
5) Knit more complicated and interesting patterns
6) continue knitting even after I go out into the real world

These are my resolutions (well knitting ones at least) for 2011. I will try to stick to them and keep posting about my progress. Happy 2011 everyone!

Welcome to 2010

So now is the time of year when people make resolutions for the new year. Things like lose weight, get a boyfriend, or do better in school. I would like to make a couple knitting resolutions for the year.

1) I would like to make a pair of socks, I have started to make a pair but they are very difficult so I stopped after one sock.

2) I would like try to make a sweater. The thought of making a sweater has always intimidated me but now that I know how to knit on circular needles the feat is not as scary.

3) I want my knitting club to actually have members. I know this is not strictly related to knitting itself but whatever. I hope that we can attract members to carry on the club when I leave.

4)To finish every project I start. I have the nasty habit of starting a project than not finishing it. So I resolve to finish every project I start.

5) Finally I resolve to be happy, again not strictly related to knitting. I will be happy with every knitting project I do, maybe even knit something for myself. But I will also be happy in life.

So those are my resolutions for the new year. Good luck in the new year remember to live life to the fullest.
