Following on from my Top 5 Hits of 2014, here are the misses:
1. Knitting (in general) - The only item I completed was a cardigan for my little niece. I am so near completing the Sprig sweater, the body and sleeves are finished and one cuff, whenever I went back to the other I couldn't get my head round it at all. It's probably really simple but I just had to leave it for a while. I also have a sore shoulder and elbow which doesn't help. So a disappointing year for knitting, still haven't got even attempting socks.
2. Bluegingerdoll Peggy skirt - Took ages to make as some of the pattern markings were missing, so that may have put me off. It hasn't been worn hardly at all, I think the length and shape aren't right for me, I might try taking it up to see if I will wear it more.
3. Merchant & Mills Camber dress - Haven't worn this dress very much, I think mainly because of the fabric. It has a wool content which is quite itchy and also the check fabric has a lime background (not obvious on internet shop photos, as sometimes happens when buying fabric on line.) I have made the top version of the pattern twice and wore them a lot, so definitely not the pattern itself. Will maybe try it in the summer in a nice linen or chambray.
These are my misses, only 3, didn't want to add things just for the sake of it. Next time I will be looking at my highlights, reflections and goals.
