Here We Go Again!

Welcome to Three River Knits: my knitting and fiber arts blog!  It is a goal of mine to blog more in 2016 - a New Year's Resolution, if you will.  And although this is literally the last day of January, at least it is happening at all.  I've spend most of the month reading other blogs, watching podcasts, and thinking about how I'd like to structure my blog.

Obligatory note. This is all subject to change, depending on what I find works best for me and what I end up making this  year.  End obligatory note.

Here are some aspects that I'd like to incorporate into my blog:

• FOs (finished objects)
• WIPs (works in progress)
• Spinning
• Upcoming casting on
• Stash enhancement 
• Book/pattern reviews
• New techniques
• What I'm watching/listening to
• What's happening in the city

Now, of course, not all topics will appear in each blog post, but those are the sort of things I'm looking at.  I also think sticking to some sort of structure will help me keep up with the blog.  I'm a planner, so I'll probably get some sort of template together so that during the week, I can work on it one section at a time and then hopefully when it comes time to post, it won't take up the whole weekend.  I also know that I won't have an FO, for example, every week but we'll work something out.  There's probably going to be a lot of trial and error going forward, but that's part of the fun!

I'm aiming for a once a week update, probably on the weekend but if I find that I don't have enough to talk about once a week, I'll push it back to every other week.  Or, maybe the opposite will happen, and I'll be so excited to share things that I'll end up knitting more than I expect!  I'd prefer the second option, but I'm only one person and I do have a full time job so we'll see what actually ends up happening.  I always have big plans, but then have a hard time following through on them.  The next few posts will be more of catching up posts because a lot has happened since I stopped posting in September.  I'll leave my old posts up just in case you're interested.
