I started off OK:
January:
Black & Gray Socks
Emily’s Scarf
Then I went to the doctor for my thumb, wrist, and elbow pain. And there was very little knitting until July & August!
September:
Madli’s Shawl
Jaywalker Socks
October:
Emily’s Baby Sweater (not my Emily, but Palma’s new little baby girl! Please send pictures whenever she wears the sweater – even if it’s too big for her!)
December:
Cthuluclava. There’s an almost-finished picture of it on Ravelry. I’m waiting for Seth to take some pictures of him wearing it before I post my final “FO” post.
And that’s it. 6 FOs. Pitiful year. No dent made in the stash!
But the good news is that I found a “magical” cure for my tennis elbow, and it has barely bothered me at all since. All I had to do was make a very light fist, and rotate my hand around one way, then the other. Bingo. No pain in my elbow. WHAT THE HECK? Why didn’t anyone tell me to do that a year ago? All those visits to the hand surgeon and the OTs. (I still would have needed the brace and the therapy for my thumb and wrist, but the elbow was what was really bothering me all this time – all it needed apparently was some hand circles!) So. Hopefully more knitting in 2010. I’m halfway through my black & red (and orange) socks. I’m hoping to get #2 done in the next week. Then I think I’ll have to knit some socks for my mom. She’s been dropping hints for months.

Your FO list is still way longer than mine. Wayyyyyy longer.
I don’t even remember what kept me away from the knitting this past year!
Me either. I guess you’re just a slacker. ;)
