5194 meters of yarn knit up between May 27th and August 15th. 18 projects total.
A big boost to focus on finding time to be anchored by creative habits. A big boost to get Christmas knitting done.
What a wonderful and playful way to get lots of work done.

Wonderful! I have a big yarn stash to knit up and I’m slowly working my way through it. I did cast on some socks from the knitting book you mentioned when I asked about your socks, by the way — I’m new to sock knitting and my transition from knit to purl is SLOW, which makes for slow going, but I’m hoping I’ll get faster with time.
Did you use a particular pattern for your hats? I love ’em!
It was the Very Warm Hat pattern by Elizabeth Zimmermann. It’s in a number of her books. I wanted something that was two layers thick, and this was the perfect, simple pattern.
