2011 saw the birth of my newest nephew (who I was blessed enough to spend time with as a new baby), saw me travel to San Francisco, saw me kick my messy habits, and saw me start (and finish!) my very first shawl.
Things I will achieve in 2012 (in no particular order of importance with exception of the first item)
1) Get Pregnant, stay pregnant and have a baby after 9 months of said pregnancy.
2) Go back to school
3) Learn how to dye wool
4) Learn how to double knit
5) Figure out how to finish (seam and block) my projects better
6) Make a sweater (bonus points for making it fit!)
7) Learn different techniques for spinning
8) Write at least one blog post every week
9) Improve my picture taking skills
Here are a smattering of pictures from late 2011.

| The pattern is Escalope by Kourtney Robinson, and the yarn is a specially dyed colour for this pattern by Sam from Yummy Yarn Studio. I am not very good at taking pictures or blocking garments, but I tried! |

| Random photo of our cat, Molly (who doesn't like balls of yarn, but prefers the cables of circular needles) |
 |
| This was done by a local artist that we had framed and is now in our living room. It is one of a kind. Did I mention the local artist is 10 and is my stepdaughter? Framing it was one of the gifts she received this year. |

All the best to you and yours in 2012!
