A couple of weeks ago I was thinking of what I’ve made in the past year. No wonder I at times thought I was developing RSI in my right hand. I was knitting like crazy. Here’s what I’ve knitted/crocheted/sewn/beaded between December 2009 and January 2011 (a total of 13 months), complete with links to the relevant posts:
- 2 strings of personalised bunting for L1 and L2
- crocheted coasters and heat protector/oven gripper thingymabobs
- 3 bunny teddies – 1 for newborn Zeph, 2 for newborn twins L3 and L4
- 2 adult berets – one white, one purple
- 1 adult cardigan
- 4 snoods – for my Dad, Jeff, Lizzi and Emma
- 2 baby beanies
- 4 pairs of baby booties – 2 for the new twins, and 2 for Corinne’s friends’ expectants
- 5 baby/children’s berets – 1 for L1, 1 for L2, 1 for Ida-Maria, 2 for Corinne’s friends
- 6 headbands – 1 for Lizzi, 1 for Emma, 1 for Nina, 1 for me, 1 for my Mum, 2 for sale
- 4 dresses for me from West African print cloth – 1 purple shift, 1 red dress, 1 blue v-neck, 1 wrap dress
- 20 or so oyster card holders – some as gifts – Lisa, Emma and Nina – and some for sale
- 1 string West African print bunting for the hallway
- 1 column of leaves scarf for my Mum
- 7 cushions – 3 for the bed, 1 for a chair, 3 for the settee
- 2 skirts – 1 pink brown and blue, the other pink, yellow and blue
- 2 girls dresses – 1 for L2 and 1 for Hannah
- 11 birds – 5 for my bird mobile, 3 for my parents’ mobile, and 3 for Mie and Dennis’ mobile
- Christmas decorations – bunting, hanging beads, heart pouches and pompoms
- 1 crocheted recycling basket
- and a whole heap of jewellery – bracelets, earrings, necklaces – some for sale on Folksy; some for gifts for Emma, Han, Lizzi, Lisa, PBM, Mie, my Mum, my Auntie; and a commission for Mike
And, that’s about as much as I can recall right now. But I think that may do for 13 months of knitting, sewing, crocheting and beading – at the very least 100 individual items. If I remember anything else, or if you think I’ve missed something off, let me know. But I’m rather proud of that!
