I came into 2025 the way I enter every year, bursting with optimism and resolutions. I like resolutions! I like aiming high!

But a lot of my resolutions are about endurance, they’re hard to measure. I’m trying not to buy clothes for a year and while I’ve succeeded so far, 2 months without buying clothes isn’t out of the norm for me. April, May, when the seasons change? That’s when that resolution will be tested.

One of my “ins” on my silly little ins and outs list has worked out for me thought. My in was just “making shit” and while I can’t pretend I’m knocking the year out of the park, I am in fact making shit. Let me tell you about it.

a digital collage with three different knit works pictured. To the left, a large fabric hangs on circular knitting needles with bright yellow stitch stoppers. The fabric is color work all over, and the bottom two inches are solid ribbing. Upper right corner is a multi colored, pink orange and purple fuzzy looking beanie with a folded ribbed edge. Bottom right, white fabric hangs on plastic circular needles also with yellow stitch stoppers.
All my images have alternative text via substack’s available alt text option, if anyone has trouble accessing alt text please let me know so I can keep my work accessible!

I have two projects on the needles and one finished object, a decent start for Q1.
