Oh man… it’s that time of year again. The time when I see all of the beautiful new knitting club subscriptions open up and I start to drool. \ud83d\ude1b It’s so fun to receive new yarns and patterns every few months and I’m just a sucker for a good subscription club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My secret plan all year was that I’d finish my year of Cold Sheeping<\/a> and then reward myself with a club (or two) to help freshen up my stash. In the past I’ve done clubs by Ysolda<\/a>, Martina Behm<\/a> and A Verb for Keeping Warm<\/a>… and I’d honestly love to do any of them again. I was thinking that it’d be really fun to be in Sincere Sheep’s “Made Here!” club<\/a> and that might be my big splurge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But then, the responsible part of my brain took over. \ud83d\ude1b I started thinking about all of the amazing club projects that I still haven’t even cast on from previous years. I decided I’d gather them up and see if I have enough to make my own personal club. I’ve heard of people on Ravelry who have done something similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lo and Behold! In an embarrassingly short amount of time, I gathered the yarn and patterns for 12 projects. I put each project in a bag and threw them all inside of a big bin. Now I can tell my kids to grab a project for me each month and I can work through my backlog. I figure that once I’m done with these 12, maybe I’ll sign up for a club to replenish what I’ve used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The yarn and patterns that are ready to go are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Fraxinus<\/a><\/li>
  2. Plum Leaf<\/a><\/li>
  3. River Wrap<\/a><\/li>
  4. Lacustrine<\/a><\/li>
  5. Leftie<\/a><\/li>
  6. Bellarose<\/a><\/li>
  7. Alyva<\/a><\/li>
  8. Sprial Escape<\/a><\/li>
  9. Morning Trail<\/a><\/li>
  10. Lightning<\/a><\/li>
  11. Smooth Sailor<\/a><\/li>
  12. Toranja<\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    So, for now, the responsible part of my brain has won. The real trick will be getting through one of these projects each month. I’m looking forward to the challenge, though!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
