I'm not typically one to make new year's resolutions, but it seems efficient to have some creative goals for the year.
I want to finish the quilt that is taunting me from my design wall. Quilts are slow going for me these days, so finishing this one will be an accomplishment.
I want to make one smallish crazy quilt. I have an idea and a plan, and will not start until summer.
I want to make a quilt for my bed. Something sedate (unlike the one on my design wall) and tranquil. It's possible I'll resurrect a UFO for this.
I will finish knitting the two sweaters I have on the needles. The first one I'll tackle in February.
I'm going to knit myself more socks. I love hand knit socks. The pair above have been in process for years. Over the weekend I picked up sock 1, which only needed the toe knit. Since then, I've made substantial progress on sock 2: I turned the heel this morning. If I set my mind to it, I could knit a pair of socks in a week or two. I'm going to knit lots of socks this year. For my next pair, I'm going to experiment with after-thought heels.
I think that's enough: a guideline for the new year, but nothing too rigid, with room or spontaneous projects and for some on-going charity stitching. Wish me luck.

Yup, I like guidelines more than resolutions too. :- ) Gotta leave room for those spontaneous projects that pop up!
Good to read what your goals are for this year, the socks look so warm and cosy.
The socks really do look warm. I wish I knew how to knit. My fingers won't cooperate though. Looks like you have some fun things to make this year.

Good luck to you and all good things!
