Around Us

I was out with Frodo and just loved the winter scenery.  Winter has been my favorite season for as long as I can remember.  I like the white and the cold.  I think Frodo's favorite season is winter as well.  He loves to sit outside on the patio step.  I think when it gets below 20 degrees he makes his sitting time outside a bit shorter than usual.

I should be done with the second sleeve of the seamless hybrid sweater tonight.  That means that I get to knit the body and the sleeves together on one big circular needle, it is what I've been waiting for!

I am also working on the citron shawl.  My sister is also knitting this with me.  So it is a mini knit along.  It is a fun pattern and very easy to knit while watching tv as long as it is not an increase row.  Then I need to pay attention.  

I had to share the gift my sister sent me!  She made me this cute little bag that holds decorative stitch markers.  It is such a fun print I had to share!  She also gave me two stitch markers that I forgot to take a picture of for this blog.  Maybe I will remember next time.
