2018 Knits

Before we get much more into the new year, I wanted to do a summary of what I made during 2018.  I'm pretty pleased with my total, especially when you consider that I couldn't even attempt to knit for the months of October, November, and December.  Realistically, if I hadn't broken my wrist, I think I could have gotten one or two more pairs of socks done - though it still would have been short of twelve pairs for the year!  No problem though, since for me, the Box o' Socks is for fun and a bit of challenge more than anything else.

Anyway, I'm happy with what I was able to accomplish.


Eight pairs of socks


A sweater for me


A sweater for my new great-nephew Oden, who was born in April


A patriotic dishcloth for the 4th of July


A pumpkin hat and an eggplant hat for dear friends, whose babies were originally due in October, but arrived towards the end of July (they are doing really well, btw).

Total:  13 items - I thought it was a lower number, so that's pretty exciting as far as I'm concerned!

BRAVO! What lovely projects, Bridget. I especially like the sweater you knit for yourself. (And I hope you're knitting again soon!) XO

What a great variety of finished objects, especially given your broken wrist. That parade of socks is wonderful!
