It's been a while since I last commented but I've caught up on your videos! I'm 31 too and I teach college level math/statistics courses and had a crazy end of fall semester. Then I fractured my leg on my break! Anyway, I was so happy to see your video today! I'm doing some similar goals for the new year. Trying to break even on yarn stash in/out, I want to end the year with 0 WIPs, and I have several garments/projects for both knitting and crochet that I really want to make. I'm trying out WIP Wednesday to help me finish up projects. Basically I'll use all of my crafting time on Wednesday to work on WIPs. I'm hoping to get back on my feet here in the next couple of weeks so I can gather all of my WIPs and figure out how many I actually have and if it's possible to finish them all on just Wednesdays. 😬 I also want to make a lot of progress on my epic Pokemon cross stitch! I can't wait to see you're blanket for the fair! That looks awesome!
oh no, I'm sorry to hear about your leg!! It's great to hear from you though! I love how you planned your goals, working on your WIPs every Wednesday is so smart, you'll easily exceed my goal of 1h per month 😆 I'd be very interested in knowing how many WIPs you have so I can cheer for you whenever you scratch one off the list YES I remember your Pokemon cross stitch!! it's so cool already, it'll be BOMB when you're done 😍 I hope you make a speedy recovery and have been able to get some rest!
@@AgithaCreates i just got back from the doctor's and I can't put weight on my leg for at least three more weeks which will help me get to some WIPs. My yarn for new projects isn't super accessible but all of my WIPs were either in my living room or on the table in my craft room so I'm currently just working on WIPs all of the time. If I counted correctly, I have 6 blankets (2 king size and 3 throw size crochet and 1 throw size knit), 2 beaded knit lace shawls, 1 knit cable shawl, 1 knit scarf, 1 crochet beanie, 1 crochet sweater, and at least six amigurumi, mosy of which just need to be stuffed and sewn together. I'm sure I missed a few 😬 starting with some of the biggest ones right now since all I can really do is sit and knit or crochet! Other bright side, I won't be buying any new yarn either because I can't drive, lol. I hope your year is starting out great and I saw your granny squares recently! That yarn looks amazing!
@@alexandrae6900 wow, you can't even drive? that sounds pretty severe! hopefully you're receiving support from family/friends for the next few weeks while you recover. That's a healthy amount of WIPs haha it sounds like it might work in your advantage that there's a lot of blankets, you won't run out of things to work on 😆 it's Wednesday night right now so I hope you're enjoying working on them tonight! And thank you, I'm having so much fun working on these granny squares. It's been a few months since I've crocheted anything and I had forgotten how much faster it is haha
