Happy Trails!
You did some great projects!! I enjoyed seeing them all! :)
ReplyDeleteThey are all so great. WIP's are great!!! Something always on hand to pick up and work on :)
ReplyDeleteYou were a busy lady. All that crafting plus working on your house. Cant wait to see next years list.

ReplyDeleteSam, it was fun seeing some of those projects again (some were new to me) - and to remember seeing them in progress over the past year. You've completed a lot. And again, you've inspired me to do something with needle and thread. I love the variety of things you make.
ReplyDeleteWow, that seems very organised! And so many different projects, well done and here's to another successful year.

ReplyDeleteOh my! What a crafty, creative year, along with everything else you accomplish on a daily basis. You are amazing! And so very talented. And definitely organized. There's no way I could even put together a post like that. Incredible! Happy new week and cheers to another year of crafting! Hugs and blessings, Tammy
ReplyDeleteYou may not feel you were committed or organised this past YOP year but looking back through this post I see an entire year of good steady work on lots of wonderful projects. They are each so different from each other that you never got bored. Well done!
ReplyDeleteHoley bagels! What a post. You really were busy this past YOP.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! You accomplished so much this past year. I'm impressed that you take pictures of everything. I seem to forget to to that and then give things away before I show anyone. You have managed to finish an incredible amount of projects. Thanks for sharing them once again with us.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Betsy
You clearly love knitting and crafts! I'm dying to know how your Dotty Angel pattern turns out, Sandy.
ReplyDeleteAnd can you share were you purchased your sock pattern? My MIL thinks using 4 needles is the best way to knit socks and I know I will never get the hang of that!
I like your Hudson Bay socks! Nice work on your other projects too! I look forward to seeing what you do in Year 6!!
