WIP Wednesday!!

It's Wednesday. That means it's time to see what I'm working on!

This is a sweater that I had thought I was finished. I have since decided it needed to be longer. 

So I snipped in two spots and frogged the bottom shell edging and started adding length. You can see the frogged yarn wound up on a bobbin. 

This shows what my two pretty glass buttons look like. 

And of course, I have a blanket that I've been working on for the past few years now. Like seriously, I have been hooking away at this one project off and on for maybe four years or so? At least? At this point I have no idea if I'll ever get this one blanket finished. LOL

What's your longest running project?

Ttfn, Jennie

Winter Time Love

It has been a cold and blustery month so far. The kind of month where I want to stay on my sofa with a fire in my fireplace and play with yarn all day. 
Most people I know are thinking I'm daft beyond all reason because I love winter. But there is so much to love.  Cozy fireside coffee or cocoa. Warm snuggles with pets and sweeties. And yarn. 

I had started this way back in the beginning of Decamber and frogged it not once, but twice. 

However, once done? Love!!  I love this perfect hat!!

One of my most favorite things about winter is how the frost looks like glitter on everything first thing in the morning. 

Tuesday of last week I picked this beauty up. I have it sitting on my desk to cheer me up and watch it bloom. 

This morning I was not disappointed. I love this deep shade of purple and the smell! While it's quite pungent, it's just right at work. 

What are your Winter time loves?
