Hand Knitting Blog & Knitting Patterns

outside – inside

November 17, 2010 by Mary Jane 8 Comments

It is raining cats and dogs outside. Our power went out. I huddle by the woodstove with my unattractive bin, filled with yarn, charts, needles and notions; surrounded by dog and daughter. All of us warm and cozy, happy to be on the inside.

Today’s reading? My favorite – Karen Magazine – filled with the ordinary…a fox…wishbones…and I learned it took 11 days for Gran to finish knitting her pink scarf.

    Poor things, just happy to have a warm head, reminds me of this article:

    The world is turning inward isn’t it? I don’t feel quite prepared for winter. Where do you find out about cool magazines like Karen? Seems like it can only be subscribed to.
