Cold Weather Projects
Although we’ve had a temporary warm-up here, the nights are still quite chilly, hinting at much cooler days to come. In addition to pulling out a few sweaters this past week, I’ve also pulled out my knitting.
During the summer months, all of my knitting projects stay neatly tucked away in drawers and closets, rarely even thought about. But with the first chill breeze, I begin getting the itch to start knitting.
