I love New Year’s resolutions–reading the many creative and ambitious lists out there as well as making my own. This year it’s a short list, because although I have all of spring semester to myself, grad work begins summer 1 and after that, time to think (let alone do) will be in short supply.

1. Continue knitting out of the stash
I have a few lovely skeins that I want to turn into impressive FOs.

2. Read all the books that I own but haven’t yet read
Flowers for Algernon, The Meaning of Everything, Here There Be Dragons, The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, among others.

3. Knit a steeked cardigan à la EZ

4. Be a better blogger
More and better photos are definitely a part of the plan (above: aloe bud in the backyard), but I’d be happy to hear suggestions for other ways to improve!

Think I can do it?
