2009 Project recap

2009 knitting projects

There are a few of my favorite knitting projects from 2009. Some are still WIP and will extend into 2010. I have SO many projects I want to start, but I will try my best to finish some first!

I feel like I’ve improved as a knitter in 2009. I did more lace work, beginning with Elizabeth Zimmermann’s February baby sweater (hats & sweaters), started on a leafy lace cardigan, made a few sweaters as gifts, and finally started cables in December on a vest for my mom. I’ve discovered that I really don’t like seaming so raglan is the way to go for now. Maybe I won’t mind it a few years from now!

I haven’t been posting any in-progress photos because I didn’t want to ruin holiday surprises for the people receiving knitting items for Christmas. Now that everyone has gotten their gifts, I will be posting more photos in 2010 :)

Happy new year & happy knitting!

    Well done on your projects! they look nice! So do I think I’ve improved over 2009, and have progressed into actually making garments rather than just scarves and toys! I’ve not quite ventured into intricate lace yet – the sweater dress is my first really adventurous project. I have however completed a couple of boleros which I am happy with, simple as they were!

    Thanks Geraldine! I look forward to seeing photos of your bolero!
