On my way to work this morning...

Fountain Park


The roads are clearer but running out of room to pile the snow. Made it!

Currently on the needles, aren't the colors lovely? The Noro yarn is made in Japan and is called Silk Garden, made up of 45% Silk, 45% Kid Mohair, 10% Lamb's Wool. Absolutely divine to work with. Any guesses to what I am making with it?

Of course this is just 3 blocks that made up block 1, long way to go, and it will have to be blocked upon completion. It must be the colors and the texture because this just flies off the needles!

  2. Eww, looks like grotty weather, we had a sunny morning with a spot of rain in the afternoon, not a snow fan!
    The yarn looks lovely, are you knitting a cosy blanket?

  3. I love the Noro - I have knit quite a bit with it! I need to finish my Lizard Ridge (blanket) though... It is 3/4 complete and sitting around in long rolls!
    Oh, and please send some snow southward, ok?

  4. I DO like the snow but it's probably best if you're not having to go anywhere in it.
    That must be some kind of blanket - looks lovely. Almost makes me want to get knitting myself but I'm sure I've forgotten how!
