Keeping my resolutions

I'm totally psyched by all the great comments everyone left.  Thanks!

Finishing Lizard Ridge checked off one of my resolutions.  It was the easy one.  So I pulled out the harder one.

Colorwork Classic, started November 2004.

February 2007, I've finished the body. 

And, I started the sleeve.

I'm not sure what's taking me so long.  Once I sit down with it, I get into a good two-handed fair isle groove and it's fun to knit.  I converted the pattern to be in the round with steeks to make it easier to knit.  So far, so good.  Hopefully the sleeves won't take two more years (aren't I optimistic!)

Hi, I haven't commented yet but I am enjoying your blog!
I love your resolution! I can't admit to how many projects I should be finishing...

But there really IS something difficult about picking up a detailed project sometimes. Sure, once you get into it, it's like chatting with a good, old friend. Looking at it in the basket though, can be like looking at a sink full of dirty dishes... it's one more task in the vast world of things to be done. Thankfully, once you DO jump in, THIS task is ultimately rewarding and genuinely fun to do.
