  1. I like the way you have laid out your list and I'm already doing an oohhh and an ahhhh to some of those items so I can't wait for you to work on them. I'm really looking forward to the whole wedding outfit being revealed as the peak shot only whets the appetite, Ruth.

  3. I don't know if I'm more awed by how ambitious your list is or how organized. I'm looking forward to see things coming off your needles!
    Love the floral print. It's perfect for a wedding.

  6. Fantastic list. I looked at the patterns and really am in awe of them. Your wedding ensemble needs to be totally revealed but.......the handsome young man next to you is stealing your thunder.

  8. Your list looks so neat and clean. :^) And you have some wonderful projects listed. I especially like the Rhombing Around sweater and the Miranda top - what a terrific design on the front. I will enjoy reading your posts about working on these projects.

  14. I really like the fact that you have a category for yourself. I get so caught up in gift making that all my projects for me get put aside. I need to rotate them fairly so i don't end up with nothing! LOL! I love that you include sewing too!

  15. I can't believe how quickly this Year of Projects has gone. I'll have to find some time next week to do my own list for the coming year...

    It's so much fun seeing all the projects that others have lined up. Quite excited to see that you have sewing plans too! I may add a few to my pile of projects this year, and pj bottoms, both for myself and the boys, are definitely on my list to do! What pattern will you be using?
