Yesterday's rain, freezing rain and snow made it a good day to get cozy and knit. Are you knitting sweater weather sweaters or cardigans or are you anticipating spring and planning your warm weather knits while you work on your wips?

With the chilly sweater weather that we have been having, cozy sweaters, shawls and blankets make the best projects to reach for to work on and to wear or have you cast on a Valentine's project??

We finally got the snow that had been bypassing us here in the Windsor-Essex, Ontario area! We stayed put and did not venture out except for Ed with the snowblower and of course a shovel...The neighbour across the road has his new toy, a new attachment for his ATV so he was out plowing his and several neighbour's driveways to break it in!

Today was bright and sunny but it was cold and expected to get colder! It is the perfect weather for digging out that work in progress, settling back with some music on, your Netflix or favourite podcast and knitting or making!

January usually means rain, snow and cold...Somehow, we have missed out here in the Windsor, Ontario area but we have had the cold temperatures... Great excuse for us makers to snuggle and knit or make something!

While we are living in the middle of these uncertain times, I am grateful for keeping my hands and my mind busy! Isn't it wonderful that we can sit back, relax and enjoy ourselves doing something that we love whether you are knitting, crocheting, spinning or weaving!

It is a brand new year so Happy New Year! Once again we are in the middle of another wave of Covid with the Omicron Variant in the forefront.
