I am mainly focusing on finishing the oldest yarn in the stash (everything above September 2023) before October 2025!

I have set myself a 2025 knitting goal and that is to knit 12 different items / 12 different yarns / 12 different designers / 12 different colors. Which could be that I will just knit 12 things.

I did not reach my goal of finishing 3 months of yarns but I did finish one month and I used a bit of every yarn that I had from the 2023 stash!

I’m so close to be under 1 kg of yarn!

Monthly goals

• January: not to cast-on anything new – success!
• February: finish the all the yarn that was under 20 gr – I didn’t accomplish but I did make a dent!
• March: finish 400 gr of 2023 yarn – finished 183 gr of the 2023 yarns.
• April: Finish the yarn for three months (like I just finish every thing in November 2024 in March) – I finished December 2023, so one month.
• May: Finish 250 gr of yarn!

I had such a hard time deciding on a goal for May, I wanted something that I might actually accomplish 😀

Until next time!
