So, I am going to look forward to the coming year. I am not going to discuss the unfinished projects, including the two Christmas presents for Mum and Dad. They much preferred their bought sweaters (shameful, I know). I am not going to think about the other goodness knows how many projects started and abandoned. I am going to think about the Fairisle hat I started and finished over Christmas. Photo here.

This is a pattern from Jamieson's of Shetland and I will be selling this as a kit pretty soon. It was easy to knit although I found the horrid dpn's that I had made it hard going on my hands. Once I was able to get my hands on some KnitPro dpn's it was all a bit easier. It looks better on, but today I don't have a model - Rex is too small. I have started an Alice Starmore cardigan in Jamieson's Shetland Heather, a lovely yarn which I hope to start selling soon. It is beautiful, not one of her most complicated designs by any means, but painfully slow. Still, I am aiming to have it ready by October so this might be achievable. What are you planning to knit?
