It's 2012, did ya know?


************

Hi, 
how is everybody?

##############

Hope your holidays were as anticipated.

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

We had a TERRIFIC time here.
Older Daughter and Older Brother 
came for the holidays
we had a high ol' family time.

Guess you all heard by now,
it's 2012

Twenty-twelve

Is this the year to make resolutions??
Or Not ! ! ! 

Everyone is going GREEN
- - - - - - - - -
No, I not vowing to go GREEN in oh-twelve
but will make an effort to de-clutter and de-stash.
Perhaps I should go with
the FIFO method.
First In, First Out
Or, maybe the alpha-numeric method.
The first quarter of oh-twelve would be concentrated on all items beginning with A-F 
or items numbering more than 2-4
- - - - naw, takes tooooo much thought.
I hope to make my life simpler in 2012.
Less is more.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

in the very beautiful Tequila colorway.

Happy 2012 !

  8. I need to declutter as well but don't even know where to start.
    Your shawlette turned out very nice.
    What is next on your list?

  9. Decluttering is a good thing and one of my goals too. The shawlette is devine. You are soooooooo generous to give it away. What is your hubby's favorite pie (thought I could bribe him 8^)

  10. Hi Gerry! Hope you had a good last couple of weeks. Decluttering is good unless you're like me and just start accumulating again:) Your shawl is cute and good luck to us all. I'd still love a pair of your socks, do you sell them? On to a great oh twelve!

  11. Woo hoo! So glad to see you back in blogland. Holidays were lovely but not enough downtime. Still, I did get a heck of a lot of knitting done. Declutter and destash ... I'm right behind you! Lovely shawlette (pick me) ... and Happy New Year to you, dear friend!

  13. Good to see your long post and hear that you had a grand family holiday.
    You've done it again--made a gorgeous shawlette from beautiful yarn. I have considered trying the Saroyan because of its interesting shape.
