Okay, one of my New Years Resolutions was to blog more often.  With that one going to Hades in a handbasket, another one is to finish projects already started.  Trouble is, when I finish one, I then start another one...
Right now, on the needles:  Toe Up socks, knit with Lang's Jawoll Magic in Brown colorway for my hubby.
Toe up sock from same yarn in an orange colorway.
Hot pink hat
Tank Top knit in 24K from Plymouth Yarn
Circular Vest knit in Lang's Mille ColorI
Tote Bag knit from fabric strips
Mitered Squares Baby Blanket in Jeanne DK
So far this year I have finished:
A Barbie dress  and knitting bag (for Barbie of course)
Toe Up Socks on DPN, in Comfort Worsted
Hat in Mushishi (scarf goes with that , but havn't cast on for it yet)
Loopy Scarf in Refasion Yarn

And to top it all off, I went to a Tatting Class tonight!  Im not sure IM going to get the hang of this one...at least I haven't wrapped my brain around it yet.
Spent the first half of my day going to the Dr to get my lab results.  Seems my cholesterol is up. Dr says start moveing!  I guess I need to figure out how to walk and knit at the same time?  Then it was off to the eye Dr to get my yearly exam.  Slight change....seems when you turn 55 you go down hill from there! 
Yes, I had a birthday this month....can't say I was happy with this one.  Twice today I heard, "you need to do this when you are 55".....pretty sure that's a senier citizen in some establishments as well.  Im also thinking about makeing a Bucket List.....it's official, Im old!

Okay, none of that has to do with anything.  I do have some great plans for the yarn shop...I have a new account prospect and the Rep is comeing this week to show me her lovely yarns.  I already have a wish list with a small budget, so I will at least meet my minimum with some great new fun yarns for spring!
Sandi will be teaching a Tunisian Crochet class sometime this spring, which we haven't done before.
I also have a lady who will teach Spinning with a drop spindle and much more in works! 
Happy Knitting!
Susan
