My 2015 Resolutions

• Go cold sheep. No new yarn, fleece OR patterns. Caveat: I’m allowed souvenir yarn if we go somewhere nice.
• Plan projects in a timely fashion.
• Continue running – I am doing the Great North Run on the 13^th of September
• Use my Filofax more effectively this year!
• Make profit on my crafting business – Skinny Lizzy on Etsy

Member’s Resolutions

I am changing the way I do things – instead of featuring a member every month, I am going to highlight a few things from the achievements thread instead.

• LakeLinda is the sponsor of the Knit-for-Yourself-Along and she knitted Cinnabar as a result of getting the pattern in the previous KAL
• kelv finished her fisherman afghan
• carrotandstick completed her nanowrimo novel
• sungardener completed a beautiful hat
