New Year Knitting Resolutions

Set a knitting goal a day
Us knitters are very busy people, and even though we’d ideally like to spend every hour of the day knitting, that’s just not possible. So, why not set yourself a realistic goal every day? This can be as simple as spending half an hour on a project, reading the latest copy of Let’s Knit for daily inspiration, or maybe you’ll have your sights set on becoming the nation’s fastest knitter!

Finish those projects!
Be honest… how many incomplete projects did you rack up in 2016? Before you get started on any new ones, why not finish them off? You’ll be so relieved once you see them complete, and not lying around making you feel all guilty.

Go out of your comfort zone
If you’re an avid toy creator, why not have a go at knitting a garment, or vice versa! It’s so easy to stick with what you know and feel comfortable with, but you’ll really feel like you’ve accomplished something when you knit away from your comfort zone.

Teach someone else
There’s no point in keeping your amazing skills to yourself! Take the time once a week to teach friends and family the art of knitting, and they’ll soon become an addict like you.
