End of month yarn stats: 61 entries, 90 skeins, 28391.10 yards, 9027 grams.
Okay, first month down. Man, January was such a long year. Anyways.
I did pretty well, considering its weirdness. I didn't buy yarn and I finished Oranje completely!
I'm trying to remember to incorporate using the planner in my daily/weekly routines, so habit is building. I did frog a hibernating project because I've realized that my gauge is much larger and I'll have to drop down two needle sizes. Unfortunately (or fortunately) the needle I need is in use. Guess I'll have to finish the Musselburgh.
I did destash a couple of partial skeins of yarn - wasn't going to use them.
February goals:
1. Buy a little bit of yarn if it feels right (will likely be going to Handknit next Saturday).
2. Maybe think about honing (ha!) those knife-sharpening skills? Scrape a reed, perhaps?
3. Finish the Musselburgh hat for my husband to wear. He's getting cold ears. (And I want that needle.)
4. Survive.
February. WTF.
I did buy yarn, though not at Handknit, but at Mary Maxim's right before the massive snowstorm on the Family Day weekend. And some gift yarn for a friend.
Here's the yarn I bought for me:
And the yarn I bought for the gift is Paton's Canadiana in pink and purple. Pretty sure I'd just destashed some of that last month, too (oops).
March goals:
1. No yarn (do I say that every month?) unless there's a really, really good reason!
2. Finish the fourth Musselburgh.
3. Work on the Cable Car Coat.
4. Survive.
