2009 Goals

My knitting and life goals for 2008, which I first mentioned here were mostly successful. I fulfilled my 2008 life goals by April, hence the update in May. In short, I "got a new apartment" and "figured out my work situation". To put it another way, I quit my job in NJ, moved to Atlanta for a new job where I have a cute little townhouse (and by little, I mean about 3-4 times larger than my tiny place in NJ).

As for knitting, my plan was to knit at least 3 sweaters in 2008. I ended up knitting 3 adult sweaters and 1 child's sweater. A few of these were mentioned in my last couple posts. The only goal I did not meet this year was to design a sweater, which is understandable given the extremely hectic year and upheaval of my life.

So, my goals for 2009 are:

• to finally design a sweater
• to knit a fair isle sweater with steeking
  
• to lose at least 20 pounds
• to be further along financially than I currently am

2008 Knits in Review

This year I knit (or crocheted) 50 different projects! Many of these were small, so I won't bother covering all of them (all can be seen in Ravelry), but here's some of the highlights that weren't mentioned in the last couple posts:
