Knit Something of the Month - 2012 Edition

DSC06050 
I've figured out the line up for next year so I thought I'd show you.  I've got patterns picked out for all twelve projects, but I'm going to keep those a secret, but I will tell you if the project is a shawl or mitts.  Sound good?  Here we go (starting at 1:00 with the pale blue and going clockwise):

  • January - The Loopy Ewe Solids Series in Cornflower - Mitts
  • February - Blue Moon Fiber Arts Geisha in Rosebud - Shawl
  • March - Fleece Artist Kidazzle in Beach House and Topaz - Shawl
  • April - Madelinetosh Tosh Sock in Cherry - Mitts
  • May - Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light in Iris - Shawl
  • June - Madelinetosh Tosh Sock in Vermillion - Shawl
  • July - Wollmeise 100% Merino in Neptun Dark - Shawl
  • August - The Loopy Ewe Solids Series in Dove - Mitts
  • September - Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks That Rock Lightweight in Maia and The Loopy Ewe Solids Series in Navy - Shawl
  • October - The Woolen Rabbit Kashmir in my own overdye - Shawl
  • November - Sanguine Gryphon Skinny Bugga in Longhorned Beetle - Mitts
  • December - Dream in Color Smooshy With Cashmere in Dusky Aurora - Mitts
So at this point I have five mitts and seven shawls planned.  I say "at this point" because I reserve the right to change my mind, change yarn, and change patterns because that's just the way I am.  Also, Max might steal some of my yarn or something (he's not trustworthy).  My goal is the same as last year: begin each project on or after the first of the month and finish (and block) by the last day of the month.

This is the plan and of course you'll find out the patterns as I start the actual projects.  The scary part is, I'll start the first one two weeks from Sunday (eep!)  Where did 2011 go?

Selecting mitts for Nov/Dec seems like a good step towards success without too much stress. Looking forward to seeing what you're up to in 2012

I wore my Ishbel in Tosh Sock (in Vermillion) for the first time today. Looking forward to seeing what you make.

Yikes! Two weeks from Sunday?!? Here I thought you were just exceptionally organized....

Good luck with your 2012 projects -- since you completed everything for 2011, I'm sure it will all go smoothly. :)

Can't wait to see them all take shape. I enjoyed watching them in 2011. I think it seems like a fun idea but I'm not disciplined enough to do something for that long.
