It is the Friday before the long weekend and so far today, it is a little overcast with the chance of rain. It doesn't look like it is going to be very warm though. I do hope it will be warm enough to sit, relax and knit in our the gazebo on our deck.
Mother's Day is this weekend, that special day when we do everything to show our love! Well for us yarn lovers, forget the flowers because your Mom (or you) wants yarn or something related to her passion for making! Of course, we also have Gift Cards!
May has arrived, and while spring hasn't been very warm along with lots of rain and wind, we can still see the flowers starting to bloom and the trees that are budding and flowering!
The annual Local Yarn Store Day is on Saturday, April 29th - TOMORROW from 10 am until 4 pm! This year ALL four Windsor-Essex yarn stores are participating in the Windsor-Essex Yarn Crawl!
Today has been grey, overcast and a bit wet out. The grass and trees are quickly turning green and starting to bloom. It's the perfect time to start our spring and summer knits!
Can you believe how warm it has been this week? My sister Mary, who is visiting and I have been wearing our summer knits...Are you knitting or doing yard work before it gets cold and wet again?
There is always a mixed bag weather-wise this time of year with snow, rain, cold and warm weather! Today the sun is shining but it is not really warm out so my fingers are crossed that we will have wonderful weather for my visit with my family this weekend!
Well yesterday was a sunny but cold and windy out and today it is wet and grey but if I look in my garden out front and out back, my tulips, allium and lilies are all sprouting up their tips!
The first day of spring was a few days ago but it doesn't feel like it yet with it being cloudy, grey and chilly out! It is still sweater weather out there and although I admit to wanting to start warm weather knits, I will finish what is currently on my needles first.
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Today was bright and yet overcast but it was still not a bad day! Spring knitting is coming...Are you ready to cast on a summer tee yet?
Another Friday of waking up to a fresh snowfall! Last Friday I called everyone taking our Saturday classes to cancel and rescheduled for tomorrow...Looking at my street and how quickly Ed was able to clear the driveway today, I think we should be ok!
It had been looking a little like spring outside but I had really been feeling it yet especially since rain was expected and a severe weather alert was in effect! (Note that the severe weather hit while I was still writing this). Are you ready to start your warm weather knitting projects or will you continue your cozy projects for a few more weeks?
I must say that the weather has been wild with the ice storm that left many without power and damaged or downed trees! We only lost power for a couple of hours yesterday morning unlike the stories I heard of no electricity until this morning. I have been knitting whenever I had the time...Have you been knitting too since it is sweater weather?
Yesterday's iffy weather followed by sleet and then cold made it a good day to get cozy and knit. Are you knitting sweater weather garments or are you anticipating spring and planning your warm weather knits while you work on your wips?
