The Wrong Kind of White Fluff

We have snow.

Now, this isn’t entirely unusual (it IS January), but I’m having a hard time mustering any excitement about it.

So I’m trying to concentrate on indoor pursuits!

Especially those that serve to promote toastiness.

For example,

Cobblestone, beginning to look like it might be a sweater!

It’s really hard to take good true-to-life colors in photos of really dark colored objects, and that’s about all I could manage for now. But I have started one of the sleeves as well-

You’ll have to trust me when I tell you that the charcoal-y grey blend of Chone and Spike is much more appealing in person.

And I’ve been spending a little quality time with Hank, my Pirtle wheel, spinning nice soft cushy singles-

Aren’t they fun? No idea what they want to be yet.
But I’m ok with that.

The Chone/Spike sweater looks great. I hope you are able to dog out of this snowy mess!

thanks Donna- this snow is crazy. Tried to dig out, but it just keeps coming. I’m not going anywhere for a while. But the dogs sure seem to think it’s neat.

    thanks Christine- don’t know what to say, ‘cept all handspun is beautiful and unique. sometimes the best thing about a skein is its imperfections.
