Have a Ball in 2008! Knitting Resolutions

First of all, Happy New Year, crafters and indie lovers!

Now down to business. I’ve seen in other blogs’ knitting resolutions, and I think it’s a great idea for me especially to make a few. I’m a lazy knitter. I also already had a goal to make finish more, many more, projects and work on the business more. Not only am I almost all unpacked, but it is a new year! Time for resolutions, and while some others list projects they want to finish, I need to be more aggressive and think long term (it is a whole year). Of course, one still needs to keep it do-able.

Resolutions:

1. To craft some every day, or at least 5 days a week. To work half on one large project and work on - and hopefully finish - one small project on these days.

2. To focus on projects I need to get done / can get done quickly to sell, and start fewer new ideas before they are.

3. Think about timeliness of products; holidays, seasons, and think at least a month ahead for selling.

4. To set a 3rd of my crafting time, after the shop’s fleshed out once more, to creating pet items for my new shop.

5. To work toward finishing 3 purses a month. Perhaps a large, medium, and small. This will be a long-term effort to succeed.

6. And finally, dilly-dally less, and focus at least equally on blogging (other sites) because those sites are the actual moneymakers.

Now I challenge you to make at least one crafting resolution that will make you a better, more skilled, or more productive creator! Please blog, or post on a forum, and leave a comment!
