Well, I hear that some of you out there, have already had your share of snow! We, here in Ontario, had temps near 60 degrees this past week, some people were actually wearing shorts!
As for today, that has all changed! The wind is howling, and it has been pouring all day. Tonight it is supposed to freeze...we are finally in winter!
Now, I'm not a huge fan of the cold weather, but a good snowfall makes the knitting more worthwhile I feel! You can just curl up, and watch the world go by.
As for my knitting, I have been working on a lot of dishcloths recently, that I am going to use as stocking stuffers- I have been using Sugar and Cream, and am trying to make a variety of patterns in complementary colours, then I plan to get some nice ribbon, and tie them up in a "package". I have also been working on the Log Cabin blanket for my son, something he will hopefully be able to still have when he is older, I am using some masculine colours of Mission Falls Merino Superwash, and if you haven't used this wool, then you should! The colours are fantastic, and it knits up beautifully!! It reminds me a lot of Debbie Bliss' products.
I bought the new edition of Vogue Knitting this week, and will hopefully have a chance later to cuddle up with it, a mug of hot chocolate (marshmellows of course), my comfies, and a blanket...ahhh bliss!!
Whether you are digging yourself into the driveway, planning on going to the beach, or cuddling up at home, have a good one!
