Crafty Threads 'n' Yarns

I've just joined the 24 in 2009 knitalong on Ravelry where I've pledged to try to knit 24 items in 2009 and half of these are to be knitted from stash.

I knitted 16 items in 2008, six of which were garments for me or mum and so this shouldn't be too difficult considering I now have an awful lot more time on my hands than in the past four or five years Wink

Anyone care to join me?

I'm doing the NaKniSweMoDo where you try to knit 12 sweaters in a year so dont know if I can manage 12 other items too. Most of these will be stash too.

Apparently you can count current WIPs as long as they are finished in 2009, so you could be well on the way if you only have a buttonband to finish for example Shocked

I'm aiming to knit 12 bigger garments like sweaters or cardies and 12 smaller items like socks, dishcloths or fingerless mitts and hats to even things up a bit Wink

You in then Terri? Nevis?

Well this year I have done 19 things, which includes several pairs of fetchings...and Easter egg warmers so I might bo in for this one. I have 2 big things that are WIP's so it'll be a good incentive to get those finished.

Go on...i'm in.

Um, having a think about that one, can I count the innocent hats Laughing

if so then 24 is easily achievable Wink

I was planning on making a few bigger items this year so perhaps I'll just watch the rest of you.

I don't think there is the slightest chance of my managing even twelve things in 2009, sadly. I'd love to do 12 sweaters, but I don't get enough time to knit. I think it takes me about 6 weeks to do a sweater. I will watch and admire!
