20 days until the inauguration…5 months until my 50th birthday…5 months until my children graduate (on the same day, thank you) from their respective colleges….
So much to look forward to this year, yes?
I have every intention of purchasing that camera battery this week. Every Intention. Really.
In the meantime, here’s that cowl I mentioned last post. Grape purple Manos del Uraguay, in a feather and fan pattern.

It’s hard to see, isn’t it. Maybe this is better.

That’s a silly hairdo I have going on, but it’s New Year’s Day, I’m on call for work, and I’m just trying to lay low. No expectations, no plans, just take the day as it comes. Note I might better spend some time weaving in the ends of this cowl.
My brother. I adore the guy. I made him some wool/cashmere blend fingerless gloves for Christmas, in a simple 4×4 rib. No, no pictures. There was no time for photography. I barely had time to wrap and send them. Anyway, he has these gloves. And today calls me and says, “they’re great, I love them, can I have a pair in black?”
You haven’t seen my cat in a while. He’s here.

He seems to enjoy sleeping around my fiber.
Speaking of which, let’s end this New Year’s post with a little unintended humor, shall we?

I *love* your neckwarmer. And the cat. (Mine are playing at being very fierce with each other at the moment.) Re: the preceding post… I hear ya. I don’t even have a job that *should* induce this state in me, but I totally understand. I can easily sleep 12 hours, as well, although unfortunately my night-person-ness never goes away so I end up sleeping the day away on the weekends or being sleep-deprived in the mornings. Sending good thoughts!

Happy Happy New Year! Lovely neckwarmer…
