My 2014 craft year is looking chock-a-block full of gifts for others. Here are a few of the yarny things I'm thinking about. Not including WIPs which are a top priority.
Adam's mother has requested this fetching cardigan. Oh my.
Hopefully some chunky yarn will have the ordeal over with relatively quickly.
And I have promised each of my sisters one of these, in adult sizes of course!
I will be Donatello, because I'm the smart one.
Jackie will be Michaelangelo, because she's the funny one.
Candy will be Leonardo, because she's the eldest, and has more of a leadership capacity.
Kat will be Raphael, because she's the angry one. LOL sorry Kat, but I think he will suit you ;)
My younger sisters and I all had TMNT jumpers hand knit for us when we were young. I'm so excited to re-live my childhood! I'll dig out the photos of us wearing our adorable jumpers for you at some point.
I also want to make myself another Miette, this time more of a cropped length with no lace, as well as a February Lady in this red-brown colour.
So that's some of the plan for the moment. I also want to make all kinds of scarves, shawls and hats, because small things are the best. I have no idea if I will be able to accomplish 7 jumpers, but here's hoping!

Wow, what an impressive list! I've never crocheted a piece of clothing, mostly because I'm sure with all the issues I have tensioning that it would end up waaaayyyy too small! ~___^ I love the Miette though, I can't wait to see your altered version of that! Also, I'd love to see a "then and now" style photo recreation with the old and the new TMNT jumpers! ^____^
