A Very White Christmas!

Happy Holidays! We have had an awful lot of snow this year. So much that all my holiday plans have been delayed and we didn't leave our home for 4 days due to all the snow. But on the brighter side; our dog, Jack, loves this snow!


I did find the time to start a big project I had been planning. It will be an ankle length skirt; the main part will be in custom dyed black yarn that Shannon dyed for me and then I plan to do 8 large gores in 4 different skiens of Shannon's Shiraz sock yarn. You can see the project and my notes on Ravelry. I have done the gauge swatches, first section and am currently working on the first gore. I am using the Taelyn's Toybox colourway and I just love it! The colours are so bright.


I decorated a cute knitting notions tin today. I am quite happy with the way it turned out. I also put some matching stickers on my ruler to coordinate it.


I am going to get back to knitting now, eh-hem... I mean homework...
