welcome 2010

Dear 2009, I was so glad to see you go. The past year was tough on so many levels. I know some others are feeling the same way. Last night I raised a toast to 2010 and to the new decade! May everyone I know have a better year and may all of your knitting dreams come true :)

Typically I don't make resolutions,, but decided that this year I'm going to really try and use up all of my stash before buying anything new. The stash has grown so much that I can't even remember what I have anymore - ridiculous. Of course this resolution didn't apply during the past week when the hubby and I traveled to my favorite yarn store in the Outer Banks, Knitting Addiction.

What a great store! We typically go there to buy the hubby some sock yarn (I'm partial to using Mission Falls DK Superwash for socks - so soft and snuggly). This time around the owner had a bunch of Lamb's pride on sale for 30% off! How could I resist? The New Year's resolution starts on New Year's day n'est pas?


Armed with my Mission Falls and Lamb's Pride, I'm off to knit the hubby some new socks and me a new sweater. I'm also getting ready to enjoy the last 2 days of our annual Outer Banks vacation. Again, welcome 2010 and happy new year to all of you readers out there. May you have a good one!
