Resolutions for the New Year

As the New Year starts, I have to write the mandatory blog post about what I'll be hoping to accomplish these next 365 or so days (a bit late on that.. so, first thing to add to list: Less Procrastation. ha!)

Projects I want to finish (finally!) in 2008 which I started in '07..



- Green/pink wristwarmers: add buttons
- Fuschia/light pink wristwarmers: finish second and sew in ends
- Crochet orange clutch: need to add lining and clean border with other color
- Purple scarflette: add silver buttons so I can wear it
- First DPN project: make the second blue/tan wristwarmer
- Laptop bag: modeled after yarnstorm's jelly bean cushions (50% done with solid color, need to start adding the other colors)
- Crochet "grannie" blanket: goal is to use up all the free Lion Brand yarn I scored while at Maker Faire in October 2007
- Begin and finish my very first clothing project. It's the first pattern I've purchased (pictured above) - Rusted Root - which is so beautiful but I'm incredibly scared since it involves a lace leaf pattern.. should take a while as well since it involves size 5 needles mostly. I bought this very pretty medium blue cotton yarn for it a few months ago.. need to get started on that!

Major goal of 2008:

Oh and the major aim of this year is to knit at least 1/2 of my stash so I'll have more space in my room.. it'd be nice to have more floor space once again.
