It is so cold that I am knitting up mittens and also a toast to wear over my leather gloves while I wait for the train in the morning. It is cold like it used to be around here when my kids were really small. You'll notice there are two different mittens started. That is because I started the red pair from some stash yarn and in the meantime ordered some wonderfully, squishy soft Cormo yarn from Martha's Vineyard Fiberfarm that I just had to start using. I dug up some brown sock yarn from my stash for the contrast color
On top of the mittens, I've been contemplating starting a fair-isle yoke sweater that has been on my to do list for a while. It is from Elizabeth Zimmermann and it entails alot of mindless stockinette in the round for the body of the sweater. Something good for the train.
I love this comment by the Yarn Harlot... I am soooo totally there!
