Accountability

I need to write out my goals for xfit (the brutal cross training gym I joined for the next 11 weeks). I was going to write them out and give them to the instructor, but I thought I would share them here for the ultimate in accountability.

Ya know, cuz if you publish something on the internet....it hasta happen!

Goal #1: Get through a full xfit workout without cheating or modifying.
How I'm Going to Get to the Goal: Really push myself at each workout, trying everything at least once before I modify it.
Prize: A morning babysitter and I can go read or shop or do anything I want.
Punishment: 50 push ups at the last class

Goal #2: Complete the 24 day Advocare Challenge (I'm on day 2)
How I'm Going to Get to the Goal: Focus each day on what I put in my mouth and log it on myfitnesspal.com.
Prize: Girl's Night Out
Punishment: I think failing is punishment enough....but pulling weeds!!

Goal #3: Run a 5K in under 30 minutes
How I'm Going to Get to the Goal: walk/jog on days that I'm not doing xfit
Prize: New exercise clothes
Punishment: wear nasty old exercise clothes longer

So, there it is in black and white...I just have to stick to it now! I think the punishment for failing will be sharing on here that I didn't make it....must stay on task!!!

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!):  Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here:  Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!

Copilot Remix

Years ago I found the Copilot Cowl by Dominique Trad on Ravelry  and it had two of my ABSOLUTE favorite things...garter stitch and yarn overs! I cast one on for a trip I was taking and knit it while I was traveling. It was the perfect project to keep my attention, but I didn't need to take the pattern out constantly. After knitting one, I noticed that the length of it was just too long for my liking, I wanted it to be a simple, single-wrap cowl. I reworked it a little bit and it is my go-to when I have a skein of fingering weight yarn (especially if it is a singly-ply!!) Copilot Remix Materials:     1 skein 100g/440 fingering weight yarn (if your skein is a little more or a little less, no problem, I put in weights so you can use up all your yarn and not play yarn chicken!)                      US6/4mm 24" circular knitting needles                      Stitch...
