The frost's not quite gone although the sun's been doing it's best. But the sky is filled with that harbinger of change – clouds.
Looking up and eastward from horseback this afternoon |
Looking westward over barn and house, from whence comes most of our weather |
For now I will dream of being the world's fastest knitter, able to produce these in time to use THIS winter. (Ha!) These "not your 80s legwarmers" have been on my to-knit list for a long time, and Laura (who left today after a welcome visit) pointed out that the grey yarn she gave me would work perfectly for them. I think I am going to make me finish the slow socks and Lanesplitter skirt before I let me cast on for them, though. NEXT winter my gams shall be styling' AND warm!
That's it for now from . . .

I'm so envious! It's -29 C (that's -20 F) outside, and I won't see any grass growing until at least mid April! Enjoy the change in weather. I have the same leg warmers in my Rav queue - I just found them a few days ago. They're probably a bit advanced for me, so I'll wait until my skills are better.
Love the pattern you shared. Now it shall be on my long list of to do's! But first I am to finish my felted slippers...this winter! http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fuzzy-feet
Great photos!
Look forward to seein the legwarmers. The pattern looks nice!
Good luck with your knitting projects. And the pictures are wonderful. Such a lovely place you live, even though there are hard things to deal with.
