Knitting meme, redux

I’m nicking this idea from Welshmillie – I also did this back in May ’07, so it’s fun to see what changes there are since then.

The meme says: “Edit the list, bold for stuff you’ve done, italics for stuff you plan to do one day, and normal for stuff you’re not planning on doing.”  I am also adding bold & italic for things I planned to do previously and have now done, and bold and underlined for things I’ve done now that I hadn’t planned to do before.  Oh, and italic & underlined for things I’m planning on now that I wasn’t before.

I don’t know if that’s much of an indication of my knitting progress or not.  I suspect how well I’ve knitted things is more to the point.  But then again, this meme is about trying techniques.  There must have been some that are left off of it, though.  I just can’t think of them.
