Ahhh a New Year!....and I am only 18 days late!

I love when the new year comes! The possibilites seem endless in January! You can make all the plans and resolutions you want and the hope that you will accomplish them is at its highest. My resolution are very similar to last years haha since not many of them were successful but I am determined to try again and maybe make them more attainable.

1.) I would like to do a fitness competition or at least look like I could. I want to be in great shape, toned and thin. I have become a dedicated gym goer the last few weeks and hope to keep it up!

2.) I want to knit a lace shawl. I had a terrible experience the last time I attempted one ( I ripped it out no less then 10 times before I gave up) so it is time to try again! I am doing the Haruni Shawl because the instructions are literally all written out! Not just a chart to get confused with so I am hoping that will be enough to make it work for me. I am on row 27 and going strong! only about 100 (probably more) to go haha

3.) I want to sew a bed sized quilt...not sure which pattern yet =)

4.) Start spinning again, I haven't in over a year!

5.) Knit a complete sweater! I have tried this numerous times but I don't seem to have the attention span. Well this year is going to be different! I even chose the pattern. It is Owls by: Kate Davies. The Yarn Harlot knit it for her daughter for Christmas and I fell in love! I really hope I will stick with it!

That is it for now though I am sure I will think of more haha. I love that most of them are craft related! I started a new job in December so crafting in general has been put on the back-burner. I am excited to start lots of new projects!

Here is my first project of 2012! Only a few inches away from being finished with the first one! They are the Hermione's Everyday Socks by: Erica Lueder and I love them! The yarn is Socks that Rock colorway Retroid =)
