jennlkMarch 1 -- music (song leader, played for communion); slouchy hat for DB, with elastic in the brim
March 2 -- slouchy hat, FCB rehearsal
March 3 -- slouchy hat (there's a lot of knitting in a slouchy hat, and mesh stitch is slower than stockinette!)
March 4 -- slouchy hat, Ravenclaw
March 5 -- slouchy hat, almost to decreases
March 6 -- FCB rehearsal (stage); started crown decreases
March 7 -- finished hat, DB verdict was 'too big', so ripped back two mesh bands and decreasing between them, then crown shaping after last band
March 8 -- music (choir, FCB concert); a few rows on the hat
March 9 -- sorted in workroom; FCB rehearsal; slouchy hat
March 10 -- finished the hat (whee!) DB's not seen it yet, so unsure if it's "right"; Blue Gimlet
March 11 -- hat approved, so ends run in; button sewn on DB's jacket: Blue Gimlet
March 12 -- Blue Gimlet; hat worn all day, but has been deemed a little bit too big, so ripped back
March 13 -- errands; slouchy hat; Ravenclaw
March 14 -- finished slouchy hat (third time's the charm, right?); Ravenclaw
March 15 -- music at church; knitted a few rows on a lot of things - Pogona, Blue Gimlet, Greenjeans, bulky hat
March 16 -- music at FCB rehearsal; Blue Gimlet
March 17 -- Blue Gimlet; Pogona
March 18 -- Blue Gimlet; TruBlu cardigan (aka Diamond); bamboo stiletto
March 19 -- Pogona; Blue Gimlet
March 20 -- Blue Gimlet; alpaca scarf
March 21 -- Ravenclaw; Gimlet
March 22 -- music (choir); gimlet; pogona; alpaca scarf
March 23 -- music (FCB rehearsal); sorted workroom a bit
March 24 -- Pogona; Gimlet
March 25 -- Diamond; Gimlet
March 26 -- Diamond; Ravenclaw
March 27 -- (failed!) pie; bamboo stiletto; (sliced index finger cleaning after egg supper, so not much knitting)
March 28 -- a couple of rows on Gimlet (purling is awkward and very slow); bamboo stiletto (pointy needle gets caught in bandage, yarn catches on bandage); Ravenclaw (larger less pointy needles, smooth yarn)
March 29 -- skipped church due to DB's return from NYC but did rehearse for Easter; Gimlet; Ravenclaw
March 30 -- music (FCB rehearsal); Gimlet (while watching baseball)
March 31 -- bandage off, but finger still sore, no knitting.

A Year of Making.
make something. every day.
(I will probably count "making a mess" as making something, because sometimes that's where you start.) Also, assume family feeding takes place on a regular basis, so cooking and baking will not be listed unless it's something special.]
