A New Year and New Ideas

It's a brand NEW year and I've got lots of ideas and only one important resolution - lose 20 lbs!
I should really lose more, but I am setting myself an easy goal (for now).

Last year I reached my goal of reading 100 books!
This year I am just going to concentrate on reading my favorite authors.

And then there are the knitting goals....
Well I pretty much knit from my stash - so that was accomplished even though I did not knit up all of my stash.
Make 100 mittens - only made 40 this year :(

I just cannot keep up with my FO's counting, taking pics, posting, but I'll try and update this blog now and then.

So on to HEET THE FEET our NAS Blitz for the month of January.

This little pattern is so quick and easy.

Pair #3

Pattern: My Grandma's Booties again! Following her instructions on how to enlarge the pattern, I increased some stitch counts.
I used 2 strands of worsted wt and these fit me - a woman's medium/large.

Weaving is on hiatus for now.
