Stuff

Tasty:



New muffin, was told it was delicious, am in agreement.  Seriously, that was a two-minute muffin.



Latest stash, not including remnants and missing two massive balls of acrylic and ten balls of two other yarns.  Still cool-sheeping it.  Though I did buy yarn from Value Village a couple weeks ago.  That was a good deal though!  A ball of laceweight (800-ish yards) for $4.99 and three hanks of sock yarn for $4.99!  That's good!  But I will try to not buy anymore (thinks about gift cards for Michaels and for Needle Emporium).


Chickadee.

So, new year, huh?  I have no resolutions.  None.  But I'll still do monthly goals, they actually kinda work for me.

December Goal completed, albeit three days before the 'deadline'.

January Goals:  Make sure all WIPs are in Ravelry and here.  Finish the Leaf Scarf and one sock (notice I didn't specify 'pair').  Also, decide what to do with Parlour Cat project.


Leaf Scarf completed.  Sock not completed.  Parlour Cat still loitering.

February Goals:  Maybe finish that sock?  And maybe don't start anything new?  And maybe (just maybe) have a meeting with the Cat?
