Knitting and Spinning 2020 Tallies

My end of year totals are not that great.  It's like 2020 stole some of my crafting mojo.  I only finished 6 knit projects, 61.5 ounces of fiber spun, and 2 medium cross stitches.  The knitting included 1 sweater, 3 pairs of socks, and 2 shawls.  

My objectives for 2021 are simple.  Craft what I want when I want.

Starting of the year is my "Frosted" sweater which has been almost finished, frogged twice, and re-started for attempt number 3.   I still have "Skaha" kitted and ready to start.  There's also the "Love In the Time of Coronavirus Shawl" kitted and ready to go.  And, of course, the never ending Vivid Blanket.  I need to put some strips together on that.

My cross stitch plans are to finish my current WIPs.  "Curious Cats" cross stitch just needs backstitching of which there is a fair amount.  "Christmas Tree and Birds" is showing progress.  It's slow going because you have so many color changes with lots of 1 or 2 stitch sections.  "Seaside Lighthouse 2" hasn't seen much attention lately, but that needs to change.  There are a few small ornaments in the works too.

Spinning has been mostly in limbo since TdF last July with only a little done since then.  I need to jump start that and get some braids done.
