I just updated my FOs 2009 page, which I hadn’t touched in an age. Looking at the page, I realized something: out of the fourteen projects on that page, exactly one was made for me. There are 5 projects made for swaps, 2 failed experiments, 3 presents made for family, and 3 hats made for donation. On top of that, what I’m working on right now is a pair of fingerless gloves (Full O’ Win Mitts) for, you guessed it, someone else. (I have also been working, slowly, on the Silver Sage scarf for myself all summer.)
My summer knitting resolution was not to buy any yarn. That one isn’t changing any time soon–with hubby going back to school, free spending money is tight. Good thing my stash has plenty of yarn left in it. Anyway, I think my fall knitting resolution is to make some things for me, dangit.
