Regardless, your finished objects are very impressive. It does seem like you’ve done more knitting than that this year! Regardless, your finished objects are very impressive.

I'm also happy that, as I'm making my way through all the blogs I've missed for the past few weeks, your number of FOs (though not the quality or complexity) is on more of a par with what I finished. (I will ignore the fact that you also sew, and I did not.) Anyway, all this to say: What a year!! I love it all!

You have been a busy little beaver. I haven't the courage to show my ufos again. It's easier to deny them that way. I’m so glad you included the sewing stuff. You have been a busy little beaver.

I think the Ironwork socks are great -- it's not self-centered to call them your top FO of the year at all. :) BTW, I'm with you on the "not buying knitting books sight unseen" -- I had to destash a couple of books because of that last year. I recently was going to purchase a book without looking through it first but I happened upon it in a local shop before I ordered. I'm really glad I didn't buy it... I enjoyed your knits and sewing projects all year! hooray for a great year! I think the Ironwork socks are great — it’s not self-centered to call them your top FO of the year at all. :)

I have ufo's that I am trying to finish before getting really involved in any thing new. After that, 2008 is the year of the sweater, knitting wise. I spent the weekend prepping fabric for 3 quilts. It's a little ridiculous... 2008, it's going to be a good year! We are so on the same page it is scary. I have ufo’s that I am trying to finish before getting really involved in any thing new.

I just couldn't put down the knitting I suppose ;) And I'm gonna say that the Ironwork Socks are my favorite of your FO's too, they just have so much depth and character. Definitely on my list for someday. No worries, I was 5 days late on my 07 Retrospective too! I just couldn’t put down the knitting I suppose ;)

I've been a longtime-reader of Stephanie, and have bought a couple of her patterns singly. (Is that a word?) I found your blog by searching for Houston knitters - I'll be moving there at the end of the month. Which is your LYS? Maybe we'll run into each other!
