I'm keeping my nose to the grindstone ...

and doing nothing but Christmas knitting this weekend. If I survive that and the extreme cold we're going to have ... well I'll be back next week.

And just in case we get snow this Sunday ... for your reading enjoyment ...

Playing in the Snow

(by Karla Kuskin)

Under my hood I have a hat
And under that
My hair is flat.
Under my coat
My sweater's blue,
My sweater's red.
I'm wearing two.
My muffler muffles to my chin
And round my neck
And then tucks in.
My gloves were knitted
By my aunts.
I've mittens too
And pants
And pants
And boots
And shoes
With socks inside.
The boots are rubber, red and wide.
And when I walk
I must not fall
Because I can't get up at all.

BTW, I've been asked a number of times, "Where do you get your knit fiber purchases?" Well one thing I do is check out the recomendations give by Sock Porn on Etsy Friday. Check out this really neat place called Pea Soup ... cute huh? And there's some pretty darn cute things at Seed Stitch Fine Yarn in Salem also.

Altho, they don't have everything online yet so you'll have to go down to the store to find those really neat gifts. (I got one this week that I can't show you 'coz it's a gift already wrapped and for someone who reads this blog. So she'll have to wait, tehe) And my t-shirts? Well, most of my t-shirts are from Threadless. Happy shopping and ...

Happy knitting everyone!
