Bitter Cold

3F/-16C to be exact.


"No big deal to me" says Mac.

I, on the other hand, am happy to stay inside with yarn and soup and a cozy spot in front of the fire.
And maybe a hot toddy.



The frost covered sheep, which doesn't faze them at all, are happy with just a little extra hay to warm them up from the inside out.

Hope you stay comfortable wherever you are.

First Day


A First Day Walk in the woods along the beautiful-in-every-season Shenandoah River



Some First Day knitting,

Fidra by Shetland Trader. Still need a pompom. Fun and easy, quick knit.

                                                                                 

 and the start of promised January spinning of Hassie's home grown indigo dyed wool,


while Fritz went for a First Day ride on his new toy

He really likes that bike.


Hope you first day was happy and full of hope.
