When the New Year started my goal was to get myself organized. My knitting self that is! I want to organize my stash, my patterns, my needles and any other knitting paraphernalia I have. So far I have gotten most of my patterns organized in labeled binders to make them easier to access. Other than that I haven’t done much! Another thing I wanted for the New Year was to knit from my stash, not buying new yarn. I was doing fine with that until recently when my grandson was born prematurely and passed away. I decided then to knit for the hospital where he was born. They are low on blankets, hats, etc. I see how much my daughter in law appreciates the hat she was given and want to give that to other families. To do this I needed to buy baby yarn or at least colors that would be appropriate for babies. So that is what I did! For the last week I have been busy knitting hats and blankets. I have 5 hats and 1 blanket done so far. I have never knitted for charity before and it feels good. My goal it to bring a bunch of stuff to the hospital on February 1, 2007. Before then I will post pictures and share a little more about me and my family.
