one year

Wow. Yesterday marked one year with this site. Big changes to come! It is amazing what can happen in a year. Cliche for sure, but also true. From dream job to mommy in a yarn shop in the blink of an eye.

Here are some things I’d like to improve on here:

1. Pay more attention to grammar. I am usually in a rush and don’t pay attention. Please accept my apology if it drives you up a wall.

2. Revamp design. This is only on the list because someone has offered to help me. Unsolicited, I might add.

3. Include more knitting content. I admit it, I have been using the baby as filler. I have been knitting and not blogging about it.

4. More stitching content in general. I’ve also been sewing and not blogging about it! In fact, I am wearing a pair of pj pants i made for myself right now.

And some things I’d like to master in my knitting:

1. Make a sweater with cap sleeves as opposed to raglan.

2. Gloves, mittens, i-cord, three needle bind off, hem with provisional cast on, more cables.

3. I’d like to use my Viking Knits book for something.

4. Make a little cash on the side with knitted goods.

I guess that’s it. Not quite as elaborate as the to do lists I used to make. I’ve got lots of FOs WIPs and have decided to address them as I please. I will control my knitting–not the other way around!

Speaking of lists–you will never guess who I ran into today. The Scissorina herself! We were both at the Delta baggage claim at Laguardia today. Talk about weird… it was a great real world way to commemorate a year of Sassy Stitchess here at the greatwhitewong.com. We vowed to see each other soon and now I’m putting it out here in writing so it will surely happen!

Hooray! It was so good to see you and to finally meet little miss MJ (even if it was amidst a crowd of luggage hungry travelers).

Happy Blogiversary, Ms Sassy! See you soon! (no, really!) ;)
