2008 round-up

I haven't blogged in a while, mostly because I am not sure if I want to a blog on the internet that could be linked to my real-life self. I haven't posted about a lot of finished objects, but I might still do so - I've got photos.

In 2008 I managed to finish 22 knitting projects, which is not entirely unimpressive. I will try and do at least 24 this year as a challenge. I will also try to buy less yarn than I use up / give away.
Of the 22 projects there were:
1 market bag (which I never use...)
1 tank top
1 sweater
1 cowl
2 gloves
2 pairs of baby booties
2 hats
2 lace shawls
5 pairs of socks
5 scarves
and a bunch of dishcloths.
7 of them were gifts. This year I'd like to knit more sweaters / cardigans and socks. I also need more hats.

On the yarn front, I just bought yarn for four projects in my queue, and as a result I've started looking at yarn on the internet in general... Despite immediately wanting to buy lots of sock yarn, I've been good and only bought lace yarn for two shawls. So I've only fallen off the wagon a little bit!
