2012 FO Page - a growing list of knit items during 2012

Goal:  finish at least 12 items before the end of the 2012

While reading one of the blogs I followed recently (June), I noticed "52 in 52" where her goal was to complete 52 items in 52 weeks.  Well, that is way too lofty for me!  Yarn Harlot, I am not! I knit slowly, have many "false starts" so.....  My goal is to compete 12 items before the end of December 2012. 

Dug through pictures on my computer and camera and found that I'm not far off!
