The Holidays came and went.
I flew to LA to visit my family for ten days.
There I found my dad's "panther" Lisa pretending she's a Christmas present.
I cooked and visited and cooked some more with family.
I knit a bit- two cowls to be exact. I only have a picture of the first cowl (modeled by Mr Tiger- It was a Christmas gift.) The second cowl was made ina rusty red color, also as a gift. That cowl saved me as my layover stretched from 1 hour to 4 because of a problem with the plane. Instead of freaking out I just knit nervously. There's nothing like bulky weight wool to make life better when anxious. Pattern: Encompass (Yarn Harlot)- yarn, Cascade Eco Wool + held double so that the cowls would be be impenetrable to cold northern winds (the cowls were going to friends in Minnesota and Upstate NY respectively.)
You can't see the stitch patterns but the cowls are heavy, warm, and were a satisfying knit.
I did almost no stitching while home. But I did start a new cross stitch pattern today (with the new year) There is little to show other than a brown stitched in corner, so I won't be showing that right now.
Anyway, Happy New Year to everyone and I hope that you all had a merry holiday season!
