Always interested in tallying and keeping track of things, I was interested to see how much I had knit in the past year. As was totaled in the side bar before the new year, I’d knit just over 4 miles of yarn in 2010. According to Google, this is roughly 258,509 inches. If you figure that each stitch is a bit less than an inch, it is safe to say that I’ve knit over a quarter of a million stitches this year. But what exactly does that mean? It turns out that with a cool quarter mil, you can make the following items:
18 baby items (3 set of baby mittens, 6 baby hats, 1 baby sleep sack, 4 pairs of baby booties, 1 baby sweater, 1 baby sweater vest, 2 bibs)
1 dog sweater
8 shawls/scarves/cowls
1 hat
2 pair of mittens/gloves
2 pairs of socks
2 dishclothes
5 bangles
2 garments (1 sweater vest, 1 cardigan)
Not too shabby… Here’s to another year of crafting!
