and I always feel guilty over it. While the rest of NZ is flooding and schools are closing I'm here thinking 'ohhh, please stay cold and miserable'.
I don't know what it is but Winter has always been my favorite season. I honestly think it's because I'm a knitter. In winter I get to wear my lovely knitwear. I get to wear my scarves, hats and wrap up warm in jeans and jersey's and jackets and have the heater's going so it's cosy inside.
On top of that I get to KNIT with no guilt - no thoughts of 'oh but I should be outside gardening' which is my summer guilt inducer. And lately, knitting is what I've been doing (and some sewing too actually).
I've done a few new things - scarves for one and a secret project - and am currently working on a set for a friend at work who's leaving to have a baby. Here's a hint:
I'm totally loving this set and think I will make it a new product. I also have other new products to make up - some gloves, more scarves and a new design hat. On top of that I have new wool - organic merino in colours TO DIE FOR!!! They're just soooo nice and bright - something I've not found before in the organic. Can't wait to start using them, which will be later today as I have a 4 day weekend - YAY!!
Keep warm everyone and even if you don't enjoy the horrible weather like I do, I hope you use it to rest and relax like I am :-)
