Next Year Will Be Better (Hopefully)

So this year has been pretty pathetic from a knitting production perspective. I had hoped to join in the 12 sweaters in 12 months. Hah! I finished one sweater, and it was one I had started the year before. I only finished 7 projects this year.

I'm setting a somewhat more modest knitting goal for next year. I want to finish 12 projects. Finishing WIPs would be awesome and they'll count, no matter how close to done they are at the end of this year. The only project I'm requiring of myself (and the only deadline I'm taking on) are Octarine socks for Sir Terry Pratchett to be delivered at the North American Discworld Convention in July. Everything else is optional.

I would like to finish up my current WIPs (Flaming Flamingo Empire, Daybreak Shawl, Granite Haruni, Firestarters and Hederas) which shouldn't be overly difficult as the sweater and shawls are all almost done. I'd also really like to finish my Swan Lake shawl, which is over 3 years old.

We'll see how I do this year.
