So are you planning any new year resolutions?
As well as going vegan for a week a month, signing up for a marathon or committing to a fundraising campaign, why not put a couple of knitting and crochet resolutions on your list.
These could combine achieving a yarnie ambition with the virtue of being a resolution you will enjoy carrying out.
To get you started here are some the KnitPro team have come up with in previous years.
- Try a new stitch pattern every month
- Learn a new technique – lace, brioche, socks on double pointed needles, or C2C crochet for example.
- Go cold sheep and swear off buying yarn for between a month and a year. This needs a second resolution alongside it: to sort out your stash so you can plan to craft without buying more yarn.
- Finish (or rip out) all your unfinished projects.
- Try a new yarn. Chunky lovers could go for 4-ply or one colour knitters could embraced self-striping yarn. Or it could be trying a new fibre such as bamboo.
