I am going to join again this year since I did soso on not adding more yarn to my stash. Amazon has been a troublesome site for me since they sell yarn. I did need some yarn for some new afghans I am going to make in 2021 for a son and a son in law and a grandson. I used up alot of yarn this year.
List for 2021
afghan for son afghan for son in law afghan for grandson cross stitch for daughter scrubbies for craft shows
I am going to keep the list short so that I can accomplish every thing.
Hope your Christmas was merry and Happy New Year.
Stay safe and stay crafty.

Well I've had a look at what I have on already.
- Finish the Bothy Threads kitties
- Continue with the 12days Bubble SAL (hopefully completed well before next Christmas!)
- Work on my Christmas projects in the new Christmas Craft A-long
- NO chart buying! Really must stop being so impulsive and focus on what I already have!
I would like to try something new, perhaps try out some new crafts for the CCAL . Really want to keep myself focused this year, other than the odd SAL that might be released throughout the year, I'm going to try and take one project at a time.
Shopping list for 2021 will mainly be fabric, with Jade sewing as well I've got down most of mine. She was using aida, but now she's tried evenweave, like me she prefers it, so I've only a small piece of white left. I have a nice piece of iridescent so I'll be doing most of my xmas makes with that.
I might need the odd skein of thread or seed beads later in the year, as and when a pattern calls for them, and maybe a few embellishments such as ribbon and rhinestones etc.

I too, am going to keep my list modest, so I have some hope of accomplishing it!
1. Make some progress on all 3 of my current BAPs (Lazy Days, Nativity Story, & Amazing Grace) 2. Complete 12 ornaments for Julie's Christmas Craft-a-long. 3. Complete a toddler afghan for Niece#8. 4. Complete a baby afghan for Baby? (a new niece or nephew due early Feb) 5. Complete 1 of my kitted AAN pieces (I've 3 or 4 to choose from!) 6. Buy that floor frame so the BAPs can go on it and I can make more progress!
Goal #2 did require the purchase of patterns & fabric, which I have already done and they are on their way. Goals 3&4 do require the purchase of yarn, which I have sitting in my cart at the online shop. Just waiting to see if they have any kind of sale during this holiday period before I hit the buy button.

For 2021 I’d like to finish Peppermint Purples 2020 sal, and work on the 2021 sal. I’d also like to knit from stash - a stash that unfortunately kept growing this past year.
I’ve been looking through my rather large stash of kits that I’ve collected over many years, there’s some really lovely ones, so I’m going to try work on some of those. My plan is to try finish a wip/ufo or two, but I’m also going to start a little kit, which will hopefully be a relatively quick finish and motivate me further.
I’d love to stitch the Alice sal from the Cross stitcher, that Kelly’s done, it would be a great stash buster, but I figure I need to get my other sals under control first lol.
