Happy New Year!
Since I last checked in here, I’ve done a ton of knitting! I knit ten squares of my Spectrum Crosses blanket, then school let out for summer vacation and I lost my knitting mojo. But then it turned to Fall and I actually managed to knit a whole sweater in time for Rhinebeck! Granted it was in a bulky yarn on size 10s, but still, A WHOLE SWEATER! Complete. With sleeves and everything! And when I was done that I knit ANOTHER whole sweater. This one on size 6 needles with all kinds of new to me tricks. This sweater, honestly, elevated my knitting to higher heights. It gave me so much confidence that I started yet ANOTHER sweater which I’m currently about 1/3 of the way through. LOVING THE KNITTING!
Which brings me to the blog because honestly I don’t have many people to talk to about my knitting. And the people I do have are sick to death of me. So I’m giving you a sneak peak of my sweaters and a super cute picture of my girls and then I’m coming back to talk about all the knitting. I hope one or two of you are still out there!
I know it’s been awhile, but I hope you’re all doing great and looking forward to the new year. I feel like it’s gonna be a good one!
Yay! for blogging and for knitting and for blogging about knitting. I’ll listen to your knitting crap all day long! And really, two spam comments already?! Are you raveling these projects? I need to see them!
Its great to see you back! I look forward to seeing MORE pictures of your knitting. And … Happy Birthday!
Yay! Can’t wait to read all about it. Miss you.
Yeah! I’d love to hear more about the sweaters. I can’t believe you’ve been able to knit at.all with your girls so small and still at home. . . Good for you!
Been following you on Twitter and glad to see you back on the blog. I loved the spectrum crosses idea. Do you know Mochimochi knitting? Someone did a rainbow of snowmen that reminded me a lot of your spectrum crosses blanket. Glad to read your blog again! Happy New Year.
Happy Birthday!
Wow, cables and everything! I say your knitting mojo has returned.
The girls are looking great. Good to ‘see’ you again.

OMG – Happy Birthday and what Gorgeous Girls!! I’ve so missed your ‘voice’ – maybe I’ll get my knitting mojo back too!!
This is sort of like a reverse birthday present — from YOU to us on your birthday. I wish I could get my blogging and blog-reading mojo back…I miss them… where’d they go???
Anyway, Happy New Year and Happy Birthday, January One.
So happy to see your update. Happy New Year and Happy Birthday too!
How’s this for thinking we forgot about you! Look at all your comments. Happy Birthday! WOW…your girls are getting so big! Weren’t you just pregnant with your oldest last year??? The sweaters look terrific, although close-ups and details would be better. (hint, hint) Have a great 2012!
Yay! Your girls are so cute. Great knitting mojo is back and lets bring back the blogs in 2012!
Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, and welcome home, Cara! We’ve missed you! Looks like more than one or two of us is still around… Actually thought of you this past week when I put on a pair of Jaywalkers inspired by your collection. Love the sweaters, can’t believe how big your girls have gotten! Have followed you since before your oldest was born. Time sure flies! Looking forward to hearing more from you.
Happy Birthday, Cara, and welcome back!!

Happy Birthday! I’m still here knitting away…in fact, I’m working on the sleeves of the bottom of your two sweaters. Looking forward to hearing what you have to say about yours. And wondering what pattern used for the green sweater. Looking forward to a good year!

Happy New Year! Happy Birthday! I think of you often as I sloooowly work my way though a blanket I had to knit because I liked yours so much! (Mason Dixon’s mitered squares)

Looks like I am not the only one who is glad you are back. I was planning to blog daily in 2012 and so I need to run post something in the next two hours.
Your girls are so BIG! Funny how that happens.
The great thing about Google Reader is that, no matter how long it has been since someone posted, it still tells me when there is a new one.
Happy birthday!
