2008 Knitting
Well, it's time for the year-end summary, but first I have a couple new projects to blog about.
For the holiday gifts I gave these to my mom, these to my middle sister, and the socks from the previous entry to my little sister, as I mentioned. However, we had two other guests that got knitted gifts this year...
The honorary 4th daughter in our family got these "Zom-bees"
Yarn: Yarn Pirate in Killer Bees
Pattern: plain ol' socks
Started: 12/18/08
Finished: 12/24/08
And I whipped out a quick hat for another more spur of the moment guest:
Yarn: Wool Ease Thick & Quick
Pattern: an improvised hat
Started: 12/24/08
Finished: 12/25/08, in the wee hours
That provided a much-needed non-sock item for my end of the year count, which is as follows:
28 pairs of socks
2 hats
1 monkey
1 TP teepee
It was actually kind of a pitiful knitting year. :( Maybe I'll do better next year... I have a feeling it will depend on my ratio of knitter to non-knitter friends in Seattle.

Wow--despite moving, you had an amazingly productive year! Best wishes for many more cool socks in 2009.
With the move, it's amazing you got any knitting done at all. 28 pairs of socks is great!
Still wayyy more knitting than I did! I'm about due for my 2008 collage. More sewing than knitting, I think, and I don't even take pictures of everything I sew... ;)
