Balmy
As I write, we’re about 4 hours (and 4 inches) into a nice proper snowstorm. (The picture was taken yesterday when the porch was free of snow. At the moment, it’s rather a lot more snow-covered out there, and I feel no obligation at all to go out and document it for you. You’ll have to use your imaginations instead.) I’ll be alright though, as I have a lovely and hugely warm new hat. See?
That, plus a bit of work on The Boy’s sock, was all my knitting over the birthday/holiday weekend. The rest of the time was spent cooking, eating, playing board games (we got a new one called Morels that I will have to tell you about soon), and bringing order to the chaos of my knitting/craft closet. The result was a very relaxing and enjoyable break, and I hope you all had just as much fun as I did.
One final reminder, the birthday buy one get one free sale expires tonight at 11:59 pm eastern time (scroll down to the Birthday Laze post for all the details). You can still swoop in and take advantage if you’re in dire need of something to knit with any yarn you may have found in your stocking!
Love the hat; lucky you with the snow!
The hat turned out great. Will you be cross if I make one and wear it inside out sometimes (whenever the pattern comes out)?
Go for it, I’ll be wearing mine inside out sometimes too!
This is beautiful! I love the inside too! Is it a known stitch pattern or one you made up?
It’s something I made up, but that doesn’t mean that someone else hasn’t discovered it before too. It’s simple enough that I’d be shocked if it weren’t out there somewhere!
Where can I get this pattern?
I haven’t written it yet, but when I do I’ll mention it here on the blog.
