Knit Cute

…I did not expect to take 3 months before updating my blog again. Overseas moves are wild, I tell ya.

I spent most of my time not crafting. No desire or time in May. Did a little in June but had no access to a scale to weigh. Finally did some work in July and was able to mostly track—but I am estimating on my current project because it’s old handspun that I have no access to the information in regards to it. The best I can do, you know? Hopefully I will continue to knit into the autumn even though cooler weather will not grace us with its presence for at least another 4 months.

This year, I’ve decided to stick with the same knitting goal I’ve had since this decade started: knit something every month. That’s it. No, yes, and yes on that one.

What about you, kitten?  Hot? Ready for autumn and cooler weather—or spring if you’re in the southern hemisphere? Did you work on anything you’re excited about? Maybe you read something you’d like to recommend?

Take care of yourselves and each other.

…I almost didn’t bother to count that yardage for this month.

I spent most of my month spinning some lovely sock yarn for my spouse, knit a little and had to rip it, then suddenly felt the need to pick up a hibernating cross stitch project. What can you do? I feel the need to follow where my crafting whims take me right now.

This year, I’ve decided to stick with the same knitting goal I’ve had since this decade started: knit something every month. That’s it. Technically a yes for April.

What about you, kitten? How has your April? Rainy and chilly? Hot? Did you work on anything you’re excited about? Maybe you read something you’d like to recommend.

Take care of yourselves and each other.

…and there went March.

I worked on only a few projects this month and only during the first half, but I did manage to get quite a lot of knitting done during that time. I’ve been focusing on a spin since then—my final “deadline” project before we move. Anything after this will be much more leisurely and get finished when it’s finished. I did keep moving ahead, and I’m very happy with what I got done. April is going to be hectic. I’m hoping for some knitting, but finishing this spin will take priority.

This year, I’ve decided to stick with the same knitting goal I’ve had since this decade started: knit something every month. That’s it. Objective accomplished for March.

What about you, kitten? How has your March? Was it in like a lion? A lamb? Did you work on anything you’re excited about? Maybe you read something you’d like to recommend.

Take care of yourselves and each other.

Wow. February is already out the door, and here comes March.

I didn’t work on as many projects this month. I’ve had lower crafting mojo and had to spread my attention to some other areas. But I did keep moving ahead, and I’m happy with what I did get done. We’ll see what March brings, as we’re getting ready to move, which means more time doing tasks related to that.

This year, I’ve decided to stick with the same knitting goal I’ve had since this decade started: knit something every month. That’s it. Objective accomplished for February.

What about you, kitten? How has your February? Did you work on anything you’re excited about?

Take care of yourselves and each other.

It’s that time again, Kittens! The start of another yearly stash track.

In 2022, I’ve decided to stick with the same knitting goal I had in 2021: knit something every month. That’s it. And I definitely accomplished it.

What about you, kitten? How has your 2022 started? Do you have any crafting plans, or are you just existing and going with your whims?

Happy 2022, Kittens!

Take care of yourselves and each other.

XO,
Amanda
