One good thing about the prolonged cold weather is the continuing enthusiasm for knitting sweaters. I am currently working on my Moxie Pulloverhttp://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/moxie-pullover by Amy Christoffers made with Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Tweed yarnhttp://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/Wool_of_the_Andes_Tweed_Yarn__D5420211.html in the garnet heather colorway. I have plowed through the majority of the body section and should be on to the sleeves by mid-week. This week I have had some extra time to search for the next sweater project(or two) and search for yarn. There are sooo many yarns that I woud like to try out.
This week has also brought with it a new round of colds for the family and new additions to the farm. Kidding season has begun!! I have decided to name the babies after bands/singers or musicians. The angora babies will be named after 80's hair bands(frankly this idea cracks me up). I have Earth, Wind and Fire as a trio of Nubian doelings born yesterday. I hope to post pictures of some of our new arrivals soon.
I hope you and yours are healthy and happy and may you listen to some music from the 1980's and think of me.
