i have been brewing on a 2005 to knit list well before the new year began. i gave myself until the lunar new year to have the all the items figured out. well, the deadline is two days away and this is all i have:
1. aran sweater or an imitation of one. i'm happy to report that it's 35%
complete.
2. socks. they will be the end of me.
3. throw pillows. i would like to make them with either fun colored yarns or
with complex stitch patterns, like this:
4. join at least one other knit along. i hope to participate in one that won't
require me to follow an exact pattern. if you plan on starting your very
own knit along, feel free to publicize it on schmeebot.
as for the general to do list, i have these:
1. start listing 100 things about me. i would like to list them as anecdotes
instead of mere statements. time to dust off those writing skills.
2. sew. i am now in possession of a fully operational sewing machine along
with all the required knick knacks. unfortunately, the urge to sew has
passed along with all the wonderful project ideas.
3. crochet. i want to revive the hook so i can copy making this.
4. (attempt to) raise $1,800 for the avon walk. i got a vote of confidence
from mariko, my very first pledge of $25. only $1,775 to go.
i want to continue adding to these lists well past the deadline. if you have such lists, please share them with me. consider it a call for inspiration.
