What do I want to knit/crochet? I have about 32 items queued for 2019. I'll be lucky complete half, but it's nice to revisit the list. Here are some of my favorites (and the images are from the designers or publishers):
- Finish Tabular by Maja Moller (completed front and most of the back already :) this is from last year's winter Pom Pom Quarterly)
- Nightshift by Andrea Mowry
- Here We Gnome Again by Sarah Schira
- G'Night Cap by Sarah Schira
- Read Between the Lines by Tammy Canavan-Soldaat (So excited to use a couple of cakes of Whirl from my Christmas presents) - Also, there is a crochet version as well :)
- Layered Waves by Rachele Carmona
There will be new patterns that will pop up to distract me from the list, but I'm excited to have a more focused year on my crafts. Also, due to my pattern/yarn addiction, this will be the year in which I don't purchase anything new...or, at least that's a hope.
I've been swatching. What do you think of these little crochet swatches/starts?
We survived and enjoyed the Christmas holiday. Here are my sons and a sweet little nephew of the cousin crew.
Here is our favorite present, little miss Molly who joined us in October. She is our family's gift.
Lastly, I found a designer that I wanted to post about. I found her patterns this weekend and just in time for her to slow down on designing: Leethal Knits, I adore her hat patterns, and each one comes with so many ideas and options. When I get one or two done, I'll post them. An indie-dyer was knitting one this designer's hats, Holm, to showcase her yarn, and I was so excited that I had to find the pattern. Lee Meredith, the designer of the pattern, is a Portlander, and she has over 170 patterns available. She now is focusing her time working for KnitPicks, which is awesome as well.
Happy crafting and have a great start to 2019!
