It's no surprise when it is in the teens and single numbers here in New Hampshire in January, but with all of the warmer weather we have been having these last few years, it always makes you suck your breath in when the usual winter weather makes her cold appearance!
I have been working on this beautiful shawl, designed by Woolenberry, named Spotlight and I am knitting this in my Opal yarn. Using the colorways "Cornhusk" and "au naturale", I am loving how soft and squishy this is knitting up and looking forward to the lacework that comes at the end of this shawl. It's been a while since I have done some real lacework!
I may have a larger lace project on the horizon this year, so this will be good training for reading those lace charts again.
The temperatures are supposed to moderate a bit this weekend, it will be nice to get outside again without freezing!
Yay!!!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend in your corner of the world!

That’s going to be a pretty shawl.

This week has been SO cold here with temps in the teens and windchill in the single digits – very unusual for it to drag on as long as it has and I hate it so much! LOL Your shawl is looking beautiful, your colors are lovely just like YOU. XOXO

Freezing temperatures at night made it as far south as North Central Florida this past week . We had to rig the front porch with tarps and a heater, and gather the potted plants there and into the garage for a few days of lows below freezing at night. We’re back to more temperate weather this week but are expecting another few nights of a hard freeze late next week.
Some of us down here,though, do enjoy the respite from the overly long summers that seem to be more frequent (it was 80 on Thanksgiving).
Love your Opal yarn. I believe I have some in my stash from the yarn club you had a few years ago. I should go and peek!
