I definitely don't need a weather report to identify the freezing level these days:
It's a couple degrees above zero and raining hard down here in the valley, which means it is impossible to dress the kids appropriately. Snow gear comes home soaked to the skin, whereas the combo of thick woolly sweater and raingear isn't quite warm enough. Any day now, it will be properly, magnificently winter.
October's leaves all blew off this week, but the colourway keeps a bit of the fire alive:

Very pretty! I love seeing the inspiration photo and then the finished yarn - your interpretation is always so spot on!

Snow is good so that the base gets built up for the Olympics! However rain does indeed make it hard to stay warm this time of year! Hope you stay warm this weekend!

This is just the way we have snow most of the time - if we get any snow at all.
The yarn is gorgous-so bright - I can see great winter accessories knit out of it.

Hi Ruth. I've tried to get on the update mailing list, but Windows Mail doesn't like my filters. Would you mind adding me to both the general update list and the dark water list? I'd be SO GRATEFUL! Thanks.

I love the picture of the snow working it's way down the mountain. Isn't winter incredible?
