2010 Knits in Review

January 2, 2011 By Mindy

A look back at my finished knits from this year: Odessa #1, Belmondo Shawl, Warshrag, Christmas ornament, Citron, two different shots of my Holden Shawlette, Odessa #2, and Cedar Leaf Shawlette.

My knitting took a huge step forward in 2010.  I started designing.  The Holden Shawlette took up the great majority of the summer months as I worked on it as I took Stefanie Japel's Design Your Own Shawl class.  The design has been very well received, and I'm just thrilled with its reception.

The works in progress: Selbu Modern, Angee Socks, Maia Shoulderette, Snapdragon Tam, and (drumroll, please) Cala Shawl. 

I have finished the first Angee sock and have made tremendous progress on Maia and the Snapdragon Tam.  If I could find the remaining skein of yarn, I'd be able to finish the Snapdragon within a few hours.

The Cala Shawl is my next design.  The knitting is finished, and the pattern is 95% finished.  It needs a good blocking and a few pretty pictures, then it will be ready for test knitting. 

Knit-wise, 2010 was a sucessful year for me.  I have some ideas for 2011, but I'll save that for the obligatory knitting resolutions post.

    Love the Holden, a perfect blend of simple and intriguing.
