March 2007 goals

Despite my unusual productivity in February, I still did a fairly shabby job when it came to meeting my goals:

1. Finish Peacock Feathers – Done!
2. Finish a pair of socks – Not done.
3. Finish at least one other WIP – Done! (I actually finished two!)
4. Work on all remaining WIPs – Done! Well, if frogging one counts as “work.” I say it does because it’s a progress change.
5. Start a new lace project – Not done.

At least the progress on my year goals was slightly better:

1. Have only one project of each type (socks, lace, fitted garment, etc.) in progress at any one time. – I got most of the way there by mid month. Okay, so I still have two pairs of socks in progress, but one is my self-design project. (What? I said at the beginning of the year that I would categorize projects as I saw fit, right?)
2. Have a maximum of five projects on the needles at any given time. – Got here before month’s end; I’m now down to three projects.
3. Finish at least five pairs of socks. – No new progress. I did rip out half of a sock, but I finished one this month, so it’s about even.
4. Finish at least two shawls or stoles. – One down, one to go!
5. Finish at least one of the two WIPs started in 2005, and rip out the remaining one if no progress has been made by the end of the year. – I frogged the toe socks early. And I knit a few rows on Eris. No new pictures of the latter, though, since who really wants to see the sleeves the third time around?
6. Decrease the amount of yarn in my stash. – No go. I broke into another hank of Koigu (for the second Falling Leaves sock), but I also bought a hank of Schaefer Anne early this month. And frogging the toe socks reintroduced even more yarn to my stash.
7. Attend SnBs more regularly (at least once a month) – So far, so good!

And now, March’s goals!

1. Finish Falling Leaves v2
2. Finish one Fairways sock and make some sort of progress on the other.
3. Work on Eris
4. Start a new lace project
