Week 5/52 YOP 16

The first month of YOP has passed so time to check in on my goals.

Knitting Plans/Goals

July Goals: Complete at least ½ of the Knitmas in July KAL. Not a hard pattern but there were issues with the cast on. Complete the yoke of my Father’s Day sweater. Complete one of the pair of my 250th socks. Finish a hat for charity. Keep working on the shawl.

Update: I’ve completed 5/9 sections of the KAL, so that is ½ way through the pattern. I did not finish the sock this month. The yoke of the sweater is complete. The hat is not finished yet.

Sewing Plans/Goals

July Goals: This month I am sewing for Christmas in July. Trying to get a jump start on sewing gifts.

Update:‍ ‍I created some christmas sewing, hats for gifts, paper towels and this week I sewed a Nativity set.

Embroidery/Cross StitchPlans/Goals

July Goals: I need to settle on a project. This is harder than it first appeared. I have no shortage of contenders. I am beginning to realize why these projects have lingered in the WIP pile for years.

Update: I did settle on a project finally, a shirt for back to school.

Crochet Plans/Goals

July Goals: Completed at least ½ of the baby blanket I have begun crocheting.

Update: The blanket is over ½ complete so this goal was a win.
