The back and two fronts of my vest are finished and have been joined by three-needle bind off at the shoulders. Today I will sew the side seams and begin knitting the band along the armhole edges. The job of seaming will be all the more fun using my new Gingher scissors adorned with cross-stitch fob. My neighbor gave these to me for Christmas and I love them!The photo above is being featured today on my photo journal, One Snap. It's a blog based on Project 365. The idea is to take and post one photo, every day, for a year. One Snap will be my primary place to blog in 2009.
Posting here at Wool Windings will be sporadic and will most likely be about knitting only, perhaps only photos of finished objects with details posted on Ravelry. I'm still debating what I want to do.
I've considered using Ravelry exclusively as my knitting journal, but there is a part of me that's not ready to give up this blog entirely and that's because of all the friendships I've made here. So, I'll experiment with a couple of ideas until I find out which works best for using my time wisely--one of my goals for 2009.

Hopefully you will keep the blog alive - I would truly miss it.
I would miss your knitting blog if you didn't do it anymore but I understand needing to move on. I have struggling with something like that myself. Seems like lots of folks are making changes this year. I will still check the site to see any knitting you might be doing.
I hope you keep this blog and post as regularly as your life allows. I would miss your knitting posts if you don't make an appearance on here now and again.
Beautiful pictures. I'll be sure to check on your onesnap blog. That's a great idea. Do you mind if I do it too?
Wish you well with One Snap...I'll be reading :-)
If you don't post often here, we can just chat on Rav! :-)
You have to do what you need to do. I have found your other blog so I'll find you. Friends stay friends blog or no blog. Good luck
Tracy...you know I'm a gal that's adverse to change...but I'm going to try to keep up. I do love the feel of the new blog. "See" you soon.

Your blog was one of the first ones I ever read. I will admitt that I was hooked and have been a faithful reader ever since.I have enjoyed your pictures and all of your interesting projects.
You have inspired me with your knitting. Thank you for that. I will keep reading on your new One Snap and keep in touch via Ravelry.
Wishing you only the best!!!!!!
I guess blog land does take up a lot of time, it must run at twice normal speed, but I would miss my visits here for sure.
What an adorable little fob, the stitching is amazing!
Ravelry makes it so easy to track our knitting. I see it drawing people away from knit blogging every day. My days of stitching are over, but your little fob is enticing.
Your neighbor is very thoughtful; the fob and scissors are perfect gifts for a crafter.
Please leave a trail of bread crumbs so I can follow you to your new blog, or posting site.
What a beautiful and appropriate gift for someone like you! I love it!
I hope you continue with this blog, but regardless, I would still follow you to your other blog. Just pls let us know.
Wow - that's a great piece of stitchery.
I just signed up for One Snap on Bloglines (looks like I'm your first subscriber). Great pictures. I look foward to more posts.
Good luck!
I'll follow both of your blogs... using time wisely.... now there's a subject!
The fob is darling, and she did a great job with the corded finishing. : )
Thanks for the good idea and link for One Snap. I need to cut down my computer time too. Glad to hear you will still be on Ravelry!
I check your blog every so many days, and am always delighted when you have a new post! I would so miss you if you left, but would certainly understand! I only dream of being such an amazing knitter as you! God bless!
Im following wherever you decide to take us this year!
Lovely fob and look at those tiny stitches!
I too am doing Project 365, just haven't blogged about it yet (running behind on my blog and visiting others - must be holiday hangover!). Good idea to start a new blog for it. So far i've just uploaded my pictures on Flickr.
Love the cowl. I hear what you're saying about Ravelry. I'm slowly going that way myself.
I hope that you continue to blog where we can say hello!
This Woolen Rabbit LOVES your woolen rabbit!
