Brings a reminder that winter is not over… sigh.
My flooded backyard is now a snow-covered ice rink… and it is very slippery in spots! But everything is covered with a blanket of fresh snow and it looks beautiful right up until you have to bundle up to head out in it that is! Wind chills in the single digits made for the fast walk ever this morning! While Frankie absolutely loves the snow but the bitter cold… not so much. It’s a day I am happy to have a closet filled with hand knits!
It is also a very good day to stay indoors reading and stitching… and hopefully I can make some headway with the button band! I have rounded the neck line and am heading down the final stretch to the bind off! Sounds short, but really there are LOTS of rows to go!
And for all of those joining in on a Word Journey this year, next Monday is our day to update how the month has gone! I will have the link up ready early and it will remain open all week!
If you are in the path of this wintry blast, stay safe and warm! Happy Monday everyone! See you all back here on Wednesday!
Yeah, we’ve had snow, sleet, freezing rain and plain rain. Now the awful winds! And more snow in our forecast later in the week. Stay warm and safe. Thank goodness for handknits!
I am so grateful to be able to stay indoors on a day like today! I hope you and Frankie survive the wind and cold and stay warm i your handknits. This is knitters’ weather!
I’m really glad I don’t have to go out at all today — it was such a mess over the weekend, and it doesn’t look any better today! It’s definitely going to be a good day (and week!) for all the woolly handknits.
be careful on the icy bits! This weather was quite the crazy storm. We have about four inches from yesterday to overnight. But now the sun is shining!!
lol sometimes on a Monday the weatherman reminds us that summer is just having a rest at the moment and will be back in full swing later on in the week. More 30+/80-90f days coming up.
I know which level of ‘temperature’ I prefer……and it ain’t yours 😊
I’m looking forward to seeing the finished cardigan
We had snow all day today and it is cold. It seems like we are having all our winter in last week and this one. I look forward to seeing the cardigan. Hang in there with the long rows for the buttonband.
We’re slowly working our way up from some sub-zero overnight & morning temps… yesterday, at -13F, Kai was like NO WAY!!
