River Run:
I wish I had some better pictures of these two but I snapped them 5 minutes before we were running out the door on Christmas.
I finished my destroyed cowl (it's gorgeous!)and will start another one for myself this week, then I should move on to arm warmers/mittens/or socks. I am not sure which direction I'm taking yet.
As for the New Year, I'm glad it's here. I don't have much to say about NYE. Last Monday I came down with a horrible cold and it knocked me on my ass for a full week. I'm still feeling residual effects of it and can't smell or taste anything. NYE I built a roaring fire, and watched Harry Potter 5 on the couch with the dogs. Brian went to a friends house party. It was actually a rather nice way to start off the year.
I don't normally make resolutions. There are a few things I'd like to do more of this year but I haven't firmly resolved to do them, I'm too ambivalent for resolutions.
I should probably walk my dogs more often, make more meals at home, and I would like to pay off my new car within the next 1-2 years rather than waiting the duration of the loan.
The one thing I'm really looking forward to in 2011? The Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival

I can't wait to see a bunch of sheep, buy some wool from local tradespeople and pet some alpacas
Alexis, every time I see one of your project updates, I'm floored. Your patterns get more and more intricate - they're beautiful! I envy the necks of the recipients of those scarves.
ReplyDeleteThank you! That is so nice of you to say :)
ReplyDeleteI feel like I have come so far since starting but at the same time I think of all the things I don't know how to do and feel like it will take a lifetime to learn them. It's daunting and exciting at the same time
