Projects to start/restart and/or finish in January....

I was going through my WIP and Frogged items that I had on Ravelry... I'm thinking come January I'm going to get them finished, or restart where I need to.










  










I started this baby blanket, and it's just been put aside.. I've done it in a multi coloured blue/beige/brown/cream, basketweave 12x12 squares.  A friend of mine is due in April, she is having a little boy, so I thought this would be prefect..

--------------------------------------------------------

I thought I'd attempt my very first sweater.. I'm doing one of those nordic sweater that was really popular back in the 80's and 90's.  A friend at work gave me this great pattern book, very retro!  I photo copied a few of the patterns to try out.  I'm using a dark navy blue, with pale blue and cream accents.  I'll post some progress photos as I go along.. so far this is what I've got!

























--------------------------------

I started the 'Darkside Cowl' that I found on Ravelry, but I think it's a bit too small... I'm going to take it out and restart it and add a few rows to make it a bit looser. 












I've really got to learn to finish projects lol.

A Day in the Life of.. Anne Barton

  Welcome to Stitch Read Cook's weekly feature!! A Day in the Life of..... This is where us bloggers & fans get a glimpse inside the days of our favorite authors!   -------------------- Anne Barton started swiping romances from her mom’s bookshelf as a teenager and decided historicals (with their balls, dukes, and gowns) were the best. So, when she had the chance to spend a semester in London she packed her bags—and promptly fell in love with the city, its history, and its pubs. She dreamed of writing romance, but somehow ended up a software analyst instead. Fortunately, a few years and a few careers later, Anne found her way back to writing the stories she loves and won the Romance Writers of America’s Golden Heart® for Regency Historical Romance. She lives in Maryland with her husband and three children, who try valiantly not to roll their eyes whenever she quotes Jane Austen. Her weaknesses include reality TV, cute-but-impractical shoes, and coffee. Lots and l...
