1. Not finishing a project today, but I will begin a new one tomorrow and it will be a BIG one.
2. No knit donations this year, but plenty of other clothing and household items went to Goodwill. 2015 was my year to reduce, reuse, recycle!
3. I met up with Lynn from Minding My Own Stitches and soon will be meeting up with Judy and then Dani from TKD- Black Belt Stitching Wizard.
4. No yarn classes ---- plenty of knitting in doctor's offices. It's a regular thing in my life. Lots of dr. visits. :-(
5. Yes to yarn and pattern buying. I don't think I bought any needles this year, but I need a new set of 1-1/2s. I dropped one on concrete and it boogered up the tip.
6. As for Ravelry ---- it has it's place. I do read a few forums, but I much prefer to take time to read my blog buddies' blogs.
Happy New Year Kathy, Troy and all the kids (regular and furred)!
Best wishes for the New Year!
I made 10 hats for the poor babies of Brazil and donated yarn to Betsy for hats for poor kids in WA.
I met up with fellow bloggers, Betsy, Gracie, Becky and Kathy.
No yarn classes but I did crochet in DRs waiting rooms.
I visit Ravelry almost every day.

I only bought yarn during my birthday month. I do use Ravelry a lot to log in 411 on projects or search for a free pattern. I'll be interested to see what you Monday meme is and yeah, I'd love to see a video. It's so interesting to hear a blogger friend's voice.
