As I do every year at this time, I start thinking about my New Year's resolutions. I have a big one for my life this year: Finish grad school. It does not have a lot to do with knitting, other than it will probably steal lots of knitting time from me over the coming months.
Since that one is such a big life resolution, I'm going to pick a simpler knitting resolution this year: Knit from stash. My Ravelry pal Elizabath calls this Negative Stash Flow, as more yarn should go out than come in. I did a rough estimate of my stash and found that I have over 6 miles of yarn at home! That should be plenty of yarn to knit with over the coming year.
And with inspirational goals comes an inspirational photo, one that I took over the break of the outside of the Ohio Supreme Court Building. These fabulous Art Deco owls represent education, which, along with science and art, forms the basis of a prosperous society. It's a good reminder for me to strive to complete my education, but still maintain the habits and traits that make me unique.
Not to reduce the impact of your six miles... but my stash is, um, 500 percent the size of yours.
ReplyDeleteYes, let's stash-down a bit.
