Day One, Blizzard Two

For those of you missing the snow.......The blizzards only just begun, but here is my front door after shovelling the walk four times today. I need to go knit something!

After the blizzard.....

LeMieux, our semi-feral cat, returns home after the blizzard. Taking a nap in the sunshine after a tasty meal.

My daughter calls this the Christmas Miracle Hat...

....because I made most of it during the Christmas Eve Broncos vs Bengals game... and it is a miracle the Broncos won (at least without going into overtime)!

Actually, it is an ear flap hat using the DIY pattern and some leftover yarn in my stash. I used a strand of a red varigated wool blend and a strand of black. I made it on size 8 needles instead of the size 10 called for and it fits my head. It would work slightly bigger, so the next one I may do on a 9 and see how that goes. I am suspecting that these earflap hats are the upcoming trend, so I figured I had better get with the program!

Doc in a Box

Where's my magazine? Doc thinks the new litter box is very comfy.

Testing out the new blanket

Still working on the border for the MD Moderne afghan, but Bellaroo (our Chihuahua/Minature Pinscher mix) just can't wait! She's taking a trial nap in it while Grandma knits away.

Christmas set

Hat and bootie set made as a gift for a friend's new granddaughter. I used red Simply Soft and some fluffy white yarn leftover from making chemo caps last year.

Max and Henry

Max the cat and Henry the dog taking a nap together.

What's for dinner, Mom?
