And I'm ready for it with my new Kiltie Cowl.
It's knit from my knitspot
Fall In Full Color Yarn Club December shipment.
It's a blend of
80% Wool,
10% Angora,
10% Cashmere
in the Yuletime colorway
A glorious Mix of blues
Knitspot always includes such wonderful goodies.
Tucked away in this shipment were
five hand-blown glass buttons designed especially for this yarn and this exclusive Anne Hanson designed cowl.

It's almost lunchtime so off we go looking for something great for lunch.
After which we'll shop for birdseed so our neighborhood birds will stay fat and sassy.
If you're going out today be certain to
Bundle up,
it could be cold out there.

red hot ♥'s to you
25 degrees? It's hot down there! ;-) I wore my thrummed earflap hat when I went out for groceries this morning - stayed nice and toasty!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
So happy our weather is mild so far this winter. Almost a week into January and keeping our fingers crossed for a very mild winter.
DeleteThrummed Earflap Hat - - way to go Gail ! ! ! ! !

That's an absolutely gorgeous shade of blue. Of course with your lovely white hair you can rock any color of the rainbow. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteAnd a Happy New Year to you, Tami ! ! !
DeleteBlue isn't as predominate in my closet as it has in the past.
Hmmm, I AM lovin' this blue.
Shopping Trip ! ! !
Thanks for stopping by for the visit, tami.
hugs
Happy new year! Your blue cowl is gorgeous. The glass buttons must have been a nice surprise.
ReplyDeleteI keep the neighborhood birds fat, too. It gets pricey in the winter but is so worth it.
These buttons are gorgeous and help make the cowl. There are two more buttons waiting for the fingerless mitts that were included with this cowl pattern to be knit. Best I getta knittin'.
DeleteMust keep those birds [ :^) and squirrels] fat and sassy.
Thanks for coming by.
hugs
Well, you just need to come here Gerry and warm up, we are in the high 50's! Stay safe and warm.
ReplyDeleteI can feel that warm sun and breezes as I'm transported to your 50degree temps, Tracey.
DeleteSun has all but melted all the snow and the streets have remained more or less dry throughout this cold spell. No black I-C-E
Have been thinking about your recent blog post and your gorgeous photography.
hugs
Your cowl is too gorgeous for words. Great color for you, by the way.
ReplyDeleteDianna, I Love these blues. For some reason my closet does not have the blues it once held . . . . Perhaps a shopping trip is in the cards.
Deletehugs
Such a pretty cowl! And I can't believe how cold it's been... I hope you stay warm too!
ReplyDeleteOur cold and your cold may differ by a few degrees, Lina, considering how much further north you are. ;-)
DeleteI'm happy here in mid-MO, just enough cold to let me know it is winter.
Any things so I get to wear some of my hand-knits. Which, btw, I did yesterday. Four different items at one time. Sox, belero, fingerless mitts and hat ! ! ! That broke the record for me ! ! !
Love that you took time to stop by, Lina.
hugs and hugs for that cute baby, also
What a lovely picture of you, wonderful cowl, I can't stand things around my neck like that....but it is pretty.
ReplyDeleteOh, Barb, when that wind blows and the temps are down, I can stand anything 'round my neck from the car to the restaurant and then back to the car then my garage.
DeleteI've spent most of my life in one desert or another and I do get cold even if we've been here over twenty years.
Thanks for commenting, Barb. I'm making an effort to be a better blog friend by posting more often. Hope 2013 will be a return to my normal routine.
hugs
Love it and the color is so flattering on you. As warm as your heart is, you'll stay warm regardles of the weather. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteOh, Marty, you're too sweet for saying such nice things. Thank you.
DeleteBtw, I must tell you. You might remember that I said I had copied your jpeg-ed copy of your recipe card for the Fruit Desert. Yep, copied and printed it. Placed it on the frig door. Bought all the ingredients and whipped up your DEEEE-LISH dish. We are lovin' it ! ! ! !
Thanks for blogging it, gal.
hugs
you are starting the year well
ReplyDeleteIt'll be interesting to see what kinda yardage I knit this year in comparison to last. Gotta love my new widget on my sidebar.
DeleteHugs
Wow, that is pretty cold! It's a good thing you have a pretty new knit to wear. I definitely agree with other commenters, it is a great color on you!
ReplyDeleteGo figure, early this morning the temps at thirty degrees.
DeleteProbably be up to mid-fifties by afternoon
Hugs
Thanks, might have to see what gorgeous blue yarns I can find.
ReplyDeleteHow was your trip home from KS.
Swift, I hope.
Hugs
Absolutely jaw dropping gorgeous!!!! And the cowl is, too!!!
ReplyDeleteHome safe from visit to Mom and Dad's and everyone is still bruise-free!
Most unique cowl I've knit so far.
DeleteI love the buttons
