Goals and Socks

  

GOALS

I've been thinking alot about setting some goals for this year.

So I got my devotion journal out and wrote them down so I'd

remember them.

Some are pretty basic,

some are lofty,

and some are just basic reminders.

Here is my list on the book I'm reading now. 

I also started another hat.   I'm not sure what it is with me and

hats.  I love making them!

Maybe because they are easy enough for me and I

can finish them.

I have a poncho started for myself and it seems

so huge a project that it's not motivating for me to work on.

BUT it's super easy so it's a project I can take when I don't 

have to pay attention to what I'm doing.

This is one of the things on my list of goals.

SOCKS

One of the whole reasons I started to knit was to knit a pair of socks.

I love socks! 

One of my favorite kinds is the mismatched socks I got 

while on vacation in Maine.

The socks were so fun and had such super fun colors.

I instantly fell in love with them and knew I had to learn to knit

so I could knit some instead of buy them! 

I've been reading and reading the books over and over again.

I've watched lessons on Youtube.

Yikes, it still seems so overwhelming to me.

A gusset,  a heel, connecting the sides, ribbing.

Makes me shy away and just read about it.

BUT last night I got the yarn and needles out and cast on the

64 stitches.

I did two rows this morning while Addan read his words.

(He's been the hardest one to teach to read so far!  He just can't

seem to get the short e sound.  He says the short a sound instead.

Practise, practise, practise!)

I sure hope this is one of the goals I'll be able to master this year!
