It's certainly knitting weather.
I have a summer weight project I worked on occasionally during the hot months of the year, but cold allows me to knit with my favorite extra bulky projects. Yesterday during the pottery sale and book signing event, I knitted away at my new red shawl. (A friend recently told me, "Women who were red get what they want," and I've taken it to heat! Plus my mother gifted me with half a dozen skeins of red yarn.)
Anyway, as I knitting yesterday, one of the sale participants told me I was creating my own cozy blanket as I knitted! Not quite a blanket, but my knees and legs were beautiully blanketed with red as I knitted between readings and signings.
You know, there are some things I love about winter.
