Each year I like to do a little retrospective on the year’s knits and spins.  I actually felt like I was a little less productive this year. I don’t know if it’s because I knit bigger projects, or just didn’t move as fast. I do know that my spinning mojo took a hit towards the latter half of the year and I didn’t get through as much as I usually do.

The Knits

This year’s tally looks like this:

• Hats: 27 (including baby hats)
• Adult Socks: 11 pairs
• Washcloths: 7
• Kids’ Socks: 4 pairs
• Kids’ Sweaters: 6
• Adult Sweaters: 2
• Slippers: 3 pairs
• Cowls: 6
• Baby Blankets: 1
• Shawls: 4
• Mittens/Mitts: 4 pairs
• Miscellaneous: 3

I’ve added my favorite nine below:

The Spins

My goal for the past several years has been to spin 52 – 4 ounce bumps of fiber for a total of 13 lbs of fiber a year (basically one bump a week).  In the last several years I have made this goal, and in many cases exceeded it.  This year I came in just shy at 12.6 lbs.

These are a few of my favorite spins:

Stay tuned until next week when I’ll share some of my crafting goals for 2018!
