Since I ditched the old webspace, I also ditched all the old posts on the old blog. I’ve been thinking about what I want to accomplish knitting-wise in 2008 and since I couldn’t remember what I was supposed to be doing this year, I thought I’d post an updated list as of March.<\/p>\n

GOALS:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Knit a pair of socks a month. So far, so good. They don’t have to match, or necessarily conform to my Sock Project.<\/li>\n
  2. Knit a shawl. I found the shawl I want to make, and it is Laminaria<\/a>:
    \n    \"Laminaria<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. Knit whatever the hell I want, when I want, for whomever I want (most likely myself), to hell with current projects, etc. It’s a hobby, after all.<\/li>\n
  4. Knit a lacey and\/or cable hat, like Koolhaas<\/a> or Foliage<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  5. Knit a pair of wristwarmers and\/or gloves. Lord knows I have enough sock yarn to tide me over till 2015.<\/li>\n
  6. Maaaaaaybe knit a sweater, like the Simple Knitted Bodice<\/a>. It turns out I am not really a sweater knitter, so if this goal isn’t met, no big. I might wander about Webs<\/a> or something to see if I can find a nice colored bamboo yarn to substitute for the silk.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So, that is what I am going to do this year. I am also going to nap a lot, the end.<\/p>\n
