Picked up this languishing WIP and decided I need to finish SOMETHING. This one is close enough that if I really focus I can have it done in under a week. It’s my #foragersweater by @lilalu72 using @yarn_cafe_creations This picture doesn’t do the yarn or pattern justice but I cannot bring myself to get out of this weighted blanket to take a better photo on such a frigid Sunday morning!
Making good progress on my #sizzshawl by @knitgraffiti using @sockobsessionyarns shown here in the colorways Sail and Siennas (and then the bottom CC uses Yummies). I’ll be introducing 2 more colorways to this beauty and can’t wait to see how they add to the overall effect. ⁣
When you find yourself in an artistic/creative rut, try going outside your comfort zone. I’m not sure if it will bring you out of the rut, but it’s a fun ride. ⁣
I don’t make new year’s “resolutions” but I do like to set goals and make plans. I also like to choose one word to be my theme for the year. I’ll be honest I don’t rememember what that word was for 2021 (survive? 😂) but for 2022, I think it will be the word BOLD. Based on my knitting plans alone, 2022 is looking bold AF. I’m ready to take more risks in all aspects of my life. These past two years have felt a bit stifling and I’m ready to be a little louder in 2022, and let my true colors show more, which apparently means lots of bright, vibrant pink. 🤷‍♀️ Swipe through to see my knitting plans (which I absolutely never stick to), and the colors I plan to use for each pattern. Almost everything is from stash, and 2 of the 9 are projects I’ve already started. I only finished one project in 2021 so I think it’s alright to get a head start. Here’s to boldly taking more risks in 2022. 🥂
My Christmas 2021 socks are finished (as of around 11pm on Dec 26)! I want to try to make this a regular tradition (I’ve done it inconsistently a couple times). I certainly have the yarn for it 😬 ⁣
I have a somewhat consistent tradition of knitting Christmas socks to wear on Christmas Day, but this year I didn’t quite make it in time since I still have to add afterthought heels… but if I finish them today, I am sad to admit that this will be my first finished object of 2021 (definitely not the only project I started though). 🥴 C’est la vie. I already have big knitting plans for 2022, and they do involve a “loose” commitment to only knit from stash, which is a tad out of control. 😬 Merry Everything!
