So in my travels through the blogosphere, I came across this survey, which is exactly what I needed to reflect on what I've done and what I plan to do. It's in list format, and you know how I feel about lists. A lot of these things are planned for my immediate future (entrelac, soy yarn, etc.) so I'm very very excited at the prospect of checking a few more items off the To-Do List.
