We often buzz through life so quickly that we fail to appreciate all the things we’ve accomplished and become.

I was a bit blue the other day when I realized just what a tremendous year I’ve had. I’d love to give you a quick sum of my crochet projects here. I’ll be doing a knitted version and more soon too.

I’m so inspired now to plan out next year!

I’ll link over to everything, in case you want to check anything out further. Most items have tutorials for you to follow along.

(Also, some projects didn’t make the cut. Either I didn’t take pictures of them, or they didn’t turn out right and I ripped them out. 

In addition to the items below, I also made several baby blankets and hats and a few other items. I’ll try to take pictures next time.)

Crocheted Calm Cowl – quick and easy!

Crocheted Flower – a great pattern, but if I could do it over again, I’d use a different yarn so you could see the petals better

Anyways, there ya go! I probably missed some things, but I’ll add them later if I remember.

Like I said, I’ll do a knitting version too, since I do both crafts. Also weaving. And maybe books. Hmm.

If you’re doing a year-end blog post about your projects or if you have any links to cool things you’ve made, let me know below and tell me all about them. I really want to see!

Have a good one… you’ll be hearing from me soooooon.
