It's been pretty cold out there all day. I checked the thermometer this morning at about ten after seven and it read 19°F. Now at nine-thirty, the mercury is up to all of 25°F (yay!) but it is predicted to dip back down to around 22°F overnight. There's a 30% chance of snow tomorrow with a large serving a wintry mix planning to arrive on Wednesday.
How does a knitter combat the chill in the air? With warm, woolly socks. Or at least, sock. I kitchenered this toe this morning and was planning to work my way down the length of its mate's foot tonight.
I call this one "Sock with Teapot" -

Well, I didn't quite finish the foot but I did make some darned good progress. I have a wee bit of a problem with all of the progress, however: this second sock is the only thing on my needles.
Perhaps I should consider winding some yarn.
I could invite the family over.

6 yarns:
My car told me that it was -12 when I got to school this morning. And I had no clean socks of the woolen variety. Gah!!!!!
Good luck getting those socks done! Wintery mixes are just not good...
+19F? I'll be over in a bit! ;)
Winters coming here too... I am not happy. But I'd love to come for the yarn winding party.
I hate to be cruel, but someone has to! We hit 70F today! It was AMAZING. Boosted the morale here.
I'm loving that yarn, is that the STR Fire on the Mountain?
I don't suppose you want to know what the temp is in Key West today.
Sounds like you need to finish the mate to keep you busy and warm.
Well, the wintry mix is here this morning (actually, just snow, so far, but predicted to change to icy conditions), so it will probably hit you tomorrow.
While the weather predictors are often wrong. This time, they are probably right!
Get knittin'! You'll need the warmth!
