Recap -2007

It was a good year for me. The Fiber Fish Mitten pattern sold very well at the start of 2007 which gave me some disposable income to spend on yarn. I feel very fortunate that so many people appreciated and purchased the pattern. With the proceeds, I purchased the Oregon Vest kit from Alice Starmore. This piece was a pleasure to knit and I'm proud to wear it any where.


This was the year of Ravelry. It is amazing what a powerful resource it has become. I find myself going to it to look for patterns, to make decisions about yarn substitutions and to keep track of my own modifications and variations. I look forward to the day that they open it up to the public for viewing. Long live Ravelry!

2007 was the first year for FibreFest North; a high point in my year. I went to the Needle Emporium's Tent sale for the first time, and we welcomed Dexter to our home.


My project tally for 2007 is:

• 9 sweaters
• 8 hats
• 3.5 pairs mittens
  
• 2 pairs felted clogs
  
• 2 scarves
  
• 2 dish rags
• 2 small bags
  
• 2 shawls
• 18 pairs of socks

You can see the whole set on Fickr. Out of that list, I gave away 16 items as Christmas presents.
