It's the New Year and New Projects Abound

Hi Folks, it's been over a month and it's a new year. Yeah, so now I have to make some knitting goals for myself. I've resigned myself to make 2-3 "big" projects. One project for myself out of the Stitch n' Bitch book that I got through a swap, a blanket for the house and a baby sweater for one of the many people in the family that are pregnant. I'll attempt to make more because I bought a pound of yarn from Jo-Ann's a few weeks ago and I'll be using that up to make somethings. I used it once to make a hat for my son's new baby sister on his dad's side. They really liked it. I also decided to use my mercentizied cotton to make her a wash cloth. I thought that I had taken pics with the new digital camera for Christmas but I did not have my memory card in so it didn't save...Darn! It was really cute too. So, I've set those and now I have to see if I can do them. I need a bunch of support so please send me an encouraging message to let me know that you believe in me. I would appreciate it.

I'm currently making squares for the blanket and attempting to use up my stash of acrylic yarn. I gotta get rid of that crap.... So I'll be putting together this blanket hopeful soon and before it gets to warm to use it. I'll be adding pics of those squares shortly so get ready.
