Knitting Like a Fiend....Or Trying to At Least

It's 2008 and I'm in the midst of a knitting frenzy. I think about knitting all day, dream about yarn, and only feel like reading books about knitting. This is unlike me!

Well, no I guess I do tend to find pet interests then focus on them exclusively for a bit. But this time it's different. I feel this passion for knitting is here to stay. Partly thanks to my need to keep hands busy and productive, partly to my initiation into Ravelry, and partly to the need to knit up this growing stash.

So what am I doing to feed my knitting appetites? Right now I've just completed my first post the the Year-Long-Gift-Along a collaborative blog where crazy knitters like myself are setting knitting goals and (hopefully) creating beautiful finished objects that are ready to wrap and give as gifts. Nifty idea and I have high hopes it'll help me stay on task and actually produce a solid body of work this year. A girl's gotta have goals, right?

Can't really post the list here since that could inadvertently ruin a few gift-giving surprises away, but I'll document my progress here along the way as a kinda knitters journal. But right now I must fix a cuppa-I'm parched!
