As usual, I started too many projects and got caught up in trying to finish what I started. It was making knitting feel like a chore instead of the fun thing it's supposed to be. I realized this yesterday when I cast on a pair of Ringwood Gloves and finished almost an entire glove in one day.
I believe my New Year's resolution from 2010 will be making its reappearance in 2011. Cast on one project at a time. And buying yarn one project at a time.
I do have 90% of my family gifts made. I should make something for my uncle, but his wool allergy makes that kind of difficult. I do have lots and lots of cotton yarn though, it's just persnickety to work with.
After the New Year I plan on getting serious about reverse-engineering this sweater. It's an adorable little thing, seen on the TV show Fringe. After that, if I still feel like reverse-engineering things, I may go after an adorable shawl-collared gray sweater I saw Helen Shaver wearing on Supernatural several seasons back.
So many things to knit, so little time...
