So that was 2012 in knit projects. I knitted much more in the beginning of the year than in the second half of the year. That’s true I was in a bit of a non-knitting mood. That because I had to much expectations of myself, I made knitting a “have to” instead of a hobby, which is supposed to be fun.
I’ve sorted this out now 😉 That’s why I don’t make any goals for the next year…no amount of sweaters I have to knit next years, no amount of sewing, no amount of books I have to read for me in 2013.
I have nothing against folks who do make these kind of goals, they just don’t work for me.

I wish you and you’re loved ones all the best for the next year! I can’t wait to see what it has in store for me,
how I will develop myself, what I will make, what I will learn and who I will meet.
I can’t wait!

Happy new year! You're some kind of jumper knitting queen! I love that fairisle one. I think you might be right about the dangers of a 'have to' attitude to knitting – it's supposed to be fun, right? 🙂 x
Wow! You've got a lot of range in the things you knit. Your Var makes me want to try an icelandic sweater so bad. And the Halla is adorable!
Wauw, supermooi en vrolijk 🙂 Bewondering dat je zulke mooie kledingstukken zelf maakt en dat je het deelt, ik vind het mooi om te zien 🙂 Veel plezier met erna kijken, dragen en nieuwe dingen maken 🙂 Liefs Kim
