KNITTING THRU THE STORM


The storm is headed our way, with more snow!  Poor kitty goes out... then in... then out.... again in hopes that it will be nice out. But he doesn't last long before it's back in for him. This is the time of year when we all get  cabin fever.


I have finished the second pair of Cowgirl Slippers, and I'm finishing the toe on the third pair. This time I am using a heavier handspun in BFL, mohair, and firestar. These slippers knit up so...fast.

Off to ride out the storm, and do a little knitting.

Stay safe and warm everyone!

ON A WINTER'S DAY

                               
                                   View from my window, as I knit through this winter's day. The lake is frozen, snow is coming down, and it's so...cold. I wish this deep freeze - we are in would stop. I would love a nice heat wave of the 40's.


Knitting away on my Cowgirl Slipper Socks, while snuggling in with the doggies, and kitties. It is a quick and easy pattern from the Interweave Knits - Winter 2006 issue. I am using a hand spun two ply of shetland, alpaca, and angora. So soft and fuzzy, they will make a great pair of TV, or bed slippers. I am already thinking about what hand spun, I will choose, to cast on for the next pair.

Off to do alittle bird watching and knitting.

Enjoy the Day!
