What's Next? Resolutions Anyone?

This is the time of year for making resolutions.  When I was a child it was a big thing to make your New Years Resolution.  Having Mom and Daddy include us children in the conversation made us feel grown up.  Of course we'd come up with all sorts of crazy things - rather extreme to say the least.  As time went on, my siblings and I got better at being more realistic.  Needless to say, it works much better that way.

My Personal Goals for 2011: 

Commit to blogging at least once a week.  

Design more.  Focus on improving my skills - the whole process from start to finish.

Publish the designs that have been ready for more years than I care to admit.

Sort through my stash & queue, match yarn to queued pattern, print out pattern, gather supplies needed for project then put the contents into a suitable bag. 

Embrace my way of knitting instead of feeling guilty. I always have several things going at the same time, so I’m not going to make project specific rules that I have to complete one before moving to the next. For my ‘work in rotation’ style, that would be completely unrealistic.

I love my drop spindles, love spinning (I just started last year).  This year, spin regularly.  Knit with my hand spun hand. Make an effort to use the stash I already have before purchasing more.  Good luck with this!  

Use the patterns and books I already own.  Obviously I purchased them for a reason - make use of them.  If and when the time comes, that I want a new pattern and/or book, be mindful and honest with myself as to whether I truly should or not.

Well, that's about it for me - all I can do is my best.

What's Yours?

So, here we are a clean slate, a fresh start coming up, right around the corner.

Whether you choose to set goals for 2011or just go with the flow as life unfolds, I hope the coming year is a happy, healthy and prosperous one.
