there was 2011 in a nutshell, and 2010 too. so with 2013 almost here, it’s time to review…
there were small things…
and cool things…
new finds in old spaces…
and old finds in new places…
sometimes i got it right…
without making a mockery of it all…
but other times, well, not so much (it was a few sizes too small)…
in the end, it was fine. if i’d just take my time…
one day, i’ll learn.
i justified my knitxistence to others, in 10 easy steps…
but sometimes it was good to let the needles rest…
i did some sewing by hand…

and some by machine…
although staple guns …
and spray paint worked great in between.
i tried my hand at magic…
did minor repairs …
and made crafty connections in candlewick pairs…
through everything, there was some fur and some fun…
yet always there waiting… laundry to get done.
there is always laundry.
i pondered…
and thanked a person or two…
tagged it…

bagged it…
bent it…
and sent it…
and i only hope that you got a little something out of it too.
sincere thanks for sharing 2012 with me. happy new year!
