Year Of Projects begins today! I used to be a member of this challenge group oh-so many years ago and now that I am retired, I have time for such things again.
This is a Ravelry group, and the purpose is to gather up, originally, our making goals in a list, work on them and post an update every Sunday.
My list will contain knitting projects and cross stitching projects. I may even give some book reading updates too. My lists are ⬇️ and are subject to change.
Knitting:
➡️Tild Sweater by Orlene Succhefor myself, yarn already purchased
➡️Tendrils Shawl by Ash Alberg
➡️ Small Flower Mitts: I have started these 4 times and frogged then because my colorwork in the cuffs always ends up too tight. But I am determined!
➡️ Granny’s Favorite by Georgie Nicolson for my granddaughter Juni.
➡️ Knit One Purl Two Mitts by Julie M. Ross—- I plan to embelish with a few beads
➡️ Fall Leaves garland by Bobbi InVeld
➡️ Finish Dodo Shawl by Heidi Alander
➡️ Sweat Anenome Shawl
➡️ Lunula Shawl
➡️ Stuffies for grandchildren: possible designs by Esther Joy Knits, Little Cotton Rabbits or Susan B. Anderson or Ekaterina Popova
➡️ Bambino Milo by Georgie Nicolson
Cross Stitch is split up in two parts. The first part are patterns I’m committed to finish by January 2026–part of a January to January facebook challenge. The second part is patterns I will probably choose for 2026/2027 year.
Part One:

So nice.ro have you back. Seems your family has and is growing since last time I read your blog. You have a great list. I love your cross stitching and look forward to seeing it. Do you still podcast with Sarah? I kind of lost touch with many of my crafty things when my son wss diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful projects you have lined up, Kim. Of course, I look forward to seeing all your makes, but at the moment, I'm really intrigued with your list of cross stitches. Excited to see those!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a lovely list of projects to work on this year. Have you tried going up a needle size for the colourwork section? That’s what I usually do in colourwork projects and it works well for me. Lovely to see you back.
