Final Quarter FAL 2015

Well, I started with an insane list.  I didn't get as much done as I hoped, due to a massively fleeing sewjo midstream.

A chunk will rollover into 2016.  I had a blast knitting and am going to make an effort to roll that into my regular rotation.  I had another epiphany that I really am not going to do the Socks that Rock patterns I had on my FAL list.  I just don't like them.  They don't seem like fun.  I'm going to use up the yarn on something else in 2016...maybe shawls (my new love) or someone else's sock patterns.  I signed up for yarnyenta's Knit from Stash sock club again.

My original list for the FAL was posted here.

Here's how I did, what is getting frogged/rolling over will show up in the list for 2016.

I have a long list coming up for the first quarter of 2016.  I've rediscovered my love of knitting.  I need to sew regularly.  I have some oldies to clear out!  I think one of them may be my Jan goal.
