...Sweater Time...

If you remember last year, I challenged myself to knit my first sweater and to knit it in the month of February. Call me crazy, I did it. I may have been up until 2:00 a.m. the last day of February, but I finished it and wore it for my birthday!

I had so much fun doing it, I think I will do it again this year!

I am also joining Lisa with Knitting Blogcast  and her challenge of randomly chosing an item from our Ravelry queue to knit through in the month of February. The pattern Serra was randomly chosen and I am looking forward to casting on come February 1st!


I am going to be using some Patons Classic Wool in a gray color, forgot to look at the exact name.

Stay tuned for (hopefully) weekly updates on my Serra!

...Year of Projects Update...

I have been doing a TON of knitting lately, but of course, not much from my Year of Projects list! :) We have had some terribly cold days in MN and I finally took the time to make myself an ear warmer!


This was my first time working with Berroco Ultra Alpaca and I think I am hooked!

Fresh Start!

It has been MONTHS since I logged into my blog! The end of the year is always super busy no matter how hard you try to coordinate things!

I've been knitting, some off my YOP list and others not and it seems like my list is ever-growing and never-ending!

I haven't looked at my Year of Projects lists in awhile, so let's recap! I removed two items and added two more...Finished half of my Christmas knitting...and am adding a new section for our baby girl who will be coming in May!!

Hopefully I will be able to concentrate more on my list now that the holidays are past!
