2017 - thankful it's over!

2017 is over and as much as I never like wishing my days away, I'm so grateful that it is. It was a tough year for me personally and took the wind out of my sails, so to speak. December was an especially difficult month. I'm optimistic that 2018 will be a much, much, much better year.

I did get some projects finished last year. They weren't things that I had planned on doing, but they kept me busy and provided much-needed "therapy." I knit five shawls and although they are finished, they have yet to be blocked because I'm waiting on blocking wires and mats. Needless to say I have no photos of them - yet!

I also made 12 mug rugs in December and my husband (great sales person that he is) sold 6 of them for me. 2 of them were gifts and the others will be forthcoming in my etsy shop. I haven't worked on any projects yet this year, but I'm starting to get myself organized so that I can focus.

I'm also feeling grateful already since I was able to take a nice walk today... unlike those of you in the path of the "bomb cyclone" or just living in areas that are freezing cold. Stay safe and stay warm.

Take care,
