I hope this is ok to start, and if anyone is interested, could it be a sticky?

I used this phrase elsewhere to describe how selfish I am going to be next year, knitting lots of things for me.

We all know that crafters are a generous lot, always making things for someone else, so why don't we show off those items we make for ourselves?

Linda

Most of what I knit next year will be for me too, excluding socks as I have promised my stepmum and stepneice a pair each.

Most of my knitteds are either for me or my mum so I guessit will be the same this next year.

I can sticky it for you if you like though??

Good idea!  Never seem to get around to knitting for me any more - there is always just this or that that someone else needs first.

With me it seems I knit one for me and then one for someone else, but I have a long list of 'I want'  so I think next year I will knit just for me as well  Laughing

A great idea eh?  I WILL be selfish this year - after some more baby stuff  Shocked   It's going well, but won't be finished in 2008 as I'm boozing in the New Year at a party  Very Happy
