A very happy new year to all my friends and readers of this blog. Hope you have a crafty one.

So, what is happening in my knitting world? I was eagerly waiting for a pattern release by an online magazine last year, which sadly did not happen. I am hoping it gets released this month atleast. Considering the pattern has been with them for a good 6 months, I am getting a bit restless.

Meanwhile, a nice, little boys’ vest is shaping up nicely.  I had a lot of hiccups on this one. I knit the V-neck part some 10-12 times before I finally got it right. I want to name this vest ‘Thirteenth time lucky’ just to spite it, but I have a feeling it will only come back to bite me. That reminds me, I will need your support again in naming this pattern (unless you are with me on the name I have chosen) which will include a giveaway, so keep watching.

I have a ritual of making new year resolutions every year. It covers my reading habit, knitting, work and personal life. I make my reading resolutions public by signing up for challenges and such, but I chicken out on other resolutions. I either feel uncomfortable to reveal them or I am scared of not achieving them and risking the entire world laughing at me.

Have you made any resolutions this year? Unless you are shy like me, do share them with us.
