My goals

[amberica]

I want to make note of some things so I don't forget them. Here are some personal goals I want to meet in my knitting:

• I want to do AT LEAST one pair of socks
• I want to do AT LEAST one pair of mittens
• I want to do a nice sweater for Jon (AFTER the wedding - I'm not taking any chances with the Sweater Curse!)
  
• I want to do an afghan (Crochet might be a better option for this, but I have a couple REALLY nice patterns for knit afghans that I'm interested in attempting)
  
• I want to learn colorwork (stranding, fair isle, intarsia, etc.)
• I want to learn more complicated textures
• I would like to try an aran design, probably on a sweater, but maybe start on something smaller?

Some of these goals are pretty small, but I just want to have them in a list so I can check them off one by one as I accomplish them.

**EDIT** Oooooh, I almost forgot - someday I think I want to tackle gloves, but that's not a high priority.

Sweater curse?

If you make a boyfriend a sweater it will end the relationship (due to his lack of true appreciation).

...or due to the CURSE and its EVIL POWERS!

maybe i should just buy him a beer instead.

Good call - boys like beer!

it's insane how much they like beer...

imagine if we came with beer flavoured nipples - we'd never get them off us. gods. what a scary thought.

Wow! I've never heard of that.

I should make a list too... and FINISH IT! After Mittens Class I'm finishing Cleaves before I start anything else dammit!
