February Goals

So this month what to do. I think my 4 goals this month are 1. Get loop tags made with my logo so I can sew them into the project bags. 2. Make 10 small project bags and 10 sock project bags. So far I have 3 small and 3 sock bags made up. 3. List 3 new items on etsy a week. 4. Write out cabled fingerless glove pattern for sale. My personal goal this month is to get my neckwarmer done for myself and try to get the raglan and placket shaping for Jordan's henley finished.

I'm exhausted, this is what happens when you start being diligent with your time. Parting shots though. The inside and outside of one of the sock project bags, they are reversible! I will update at the end of the week with my progress and some of the product photos!

Well this is going to be short and sweet today. I epically failed to finish my eye pods goal. But I'm okay with that. I accomplished my project bag goal, which I'm excited about because I have so many lined up ready to make for next month. Patterns are at a stand still. I'll update later.

January Goals Update

So this week was crazy busy again, but I think that I'm starting to adjust, or at least get organized. I'm still not getting as much as I wanted done, but I am realizing that I'm only human. I'm also realizing that I have spent all my alotted amount 'all-nighters' for life. As for my goals this month I think I'm doing pretty good but I'm down to crunch time. I have 5 eye pods done. Two reversible bags finished...I'm thinking about creating a sock project size in addition to the small project size. I've made up 3 new patterns I just have to type them up. The facebook likes are fulfilled as well, Yay!. Lets see if I can reach my goals or at least get close, so far I have 50% done but lets go for 100 right? I also have to think about what my goals for next month will be..hmm.

Well new years resolutions

So much for one of my resolutions, keep up with my blog at least on a week or bi-weekly basis. But here is my stumbling block, resolution. I am going a different route. I am going to have goals each month that I am going to achieve that way at the end of the year I'm not sitting there waiting for the ball to drop and thinking about all these amazing resolutions I crapped out on. So for the month of January I have put up 4goals. 1. Make 10 eyeglass cases in 10 colors. 2. Make 10 reversible project bags. 3. Make 3 new patterns and get them printed out and ready to be sold. 4. Get 3 more followers on my facebook fan page. If you want to be apart of my last goal for the month look me up on facebook, KnittedWaveStudio. Well I will update at the end of the week to see what I have accomplished.

Whoooray for finished blankets!

It's finished the log cabin blanket was blocked and packed up in the wee hours of the morning and dropped it off at the post office. Thank goodness it's over. Don't get me wrong I loved making it for my friend. I learned a new technique and refined my design process by making it. I have taken away from this that I a) respect the heck out of women who make these afghans all the time and b) I won't ever make a blanket larger than a baby blanket or a lapghan. It just takes up so much time that you are running off of love and not money, which is totally awesome when your doing it for the love of it but its not a practical thing for me to do again. So having said that I went through blanket detox by working on a simple striped scarf and a beaded handle for a beautiful bag and hat combo that is a class over at the Knit N Knibble. If you're in the Tampa area check it out. Once my detox is over I will begin work on moebius neckwarmers and Dr. Who Scarves. They will be on sale in my shop in the coming weeks. I will post my progress of those on here. ciao

The 4 Hats Project and Giant Wooden Cranes

Well here is hat number one of the 4 hats project. All hats are going to be earflaps. One shades of pink, one purple, and two black and pink. I want to put these up in my shop for the holidays, but I have one issue...time. If I could stop or manipulate time but continue to knit I would be set.

On another note I have to make a giant wooden crane a scarf for a school holiday festival. I will be winging it on that one because I have no idea how big the crane is. I love to fly by the seat of my pants...okay enough puns. Here's the hat, I can't think of much more to write about right now, the unnatural cold that blew in a few days ago has caused icicles on my brain, impeding my thought process for writing. Hopefully it will warm up or my vegetable garden will die.
