POSTED! See what I've done in the last 10 days:
Worked on my Romi Shawl, Zephyr Cove. I'm about 2/3 done!
Finished 1 Drift Sock:
Finished (almost) the leg of the Owlie Socks:
Finished clue 3 of the Hazel Knits Mystery Sock - have to cast on the second sock!
Crocheted 15 hexagons and some 1/2 hexagons for the edge:
I'm very proud of myself for figuring out how to do the 1/2 hexagons. My blanket is getting bigger...
I've been thinking a lot about 2013 goals and I'm going to make it simple! So they are:
1. 24 pairs of socks.
2. 8 pairs of socks using variegated yarns.
3. 4 pairs of socks using yarn I've not used before.
4. 8 pairs using patterns from sock clubs, past & present.
5. 150 mitered squares for blanket
6. 200 crocheted hexagons for blanket
7. 1 sweater (yes, Barb! I have to finish 1 sweater!)
8. 6 shawls
9. 10 knitted gifts
10. 3 published designs
And, I keep forgetting to tell you all that I am going to Stitches West!! It's being held in Santa Clara, California, a neighboring city from where my sister lives in Sunnyvale. So if you are going to be there as well, please message me on Ravelry so we can meet up! Right now, my only plans are to have dinner with the Romi group on Friday evening.
I have the evening to myself, so guess what I can do for a couple of hours??? You got it!
That's an impressive list of goals! 3 published designs? Awesome!
I think that your Owlie Socks are without question, the most gorgeous ones I've ever seen. You chose the absolute perfect yarn for them!

Oh, so sorry you didn't go to StitchesWest last year and that I'm not going this year! Would have been fun to meet in person. What classes are you taking? Clucks and I took three classes with Cookie A and had a blast!

Oooooh I love the colors in your shawl and the hex blanket is looking great!

Love, love, love the socks. I adore the Owlie socks. I must find the pattern and copy you. I have a skein of Arroyo which would be perfect. I don't have any appropriate beads, though.
And I love that drift sock. I'll have to do that one as well.
Thanks for all these great blog posts. I'm impressed by your knitting goals for 2013.

I'll be excited to see your sweater!! Are you going to finish the Mr. Greenjeans or do something else? (You know, vests count as sweaters :)
