A Breath of Cold Air

 Did you get a chance to go out today and just breathe the fresh, cold, crisp air with sun?  

I did. And it required sunglasses and warm socks.

I didn't get much done on my Yuletide Scarf for today, but I did get to drink my coffee.

And I talk about my state of knitting mind on today's PJKnits You Tube Episode Number 152, PJKnits Grand Plans for 2026.  You can watch it by clicking here

Have a good week!!

Snow Snow Snow

 We have had more snow in the last weeks since Thanksgiving then we have had in a while.  I like snow, but now, I'm just plain over it.  I think there is at least 6 inches out there now, and next the frigid weather is coming and then, low and behold mid weekish, heading toward the 50s.  Oy, what weather!!

I've been busy most of the month working on the Yuletide Scarf KAL with Corrina's Crafty.  The Advent is from 2022, so I am glad to be knitting on it from PYS and I am loving it.

But, I have hit that wall that seems to happen every mid December when I am doing an Advent, that though is a topic that I'll talk about on Podcast 152 tomorrow.

I have worked just a touch on the Woolens and Nosh Advent, but really haven't progressed very far on it.  I am knitting Musselburgh #14 out of it.

When I'm not working on the Advents, I am knitting on Christmas Belle by Isabelle Kraemer.  Right now there isn't much to see because it is the body, but it is such a good knit for Zooms and just watching it snow from the inside.

I am anxious to finish it, but not sure if I will in time for Christmas, but the nice thing about it, is that I really can wear it into the new year.

Hope all is well with you dear readers and that your knitting is in your hand and you are enjoying it.

I'm Still Here

And I don't have any real excuse, just that I have been very lacks on blog posting, but here are a couple of knit related goings on for now.

There is a new podcast up on the PJKnits You Tube Channel.  You can find it by clicking here 

I don't video any Vlogmas for the PJKnits channel, but I have been following  quite a few and participating in two knits.

One I can't show anymore, because I am knitting Musselburgh #14 out of the Woolens and Nosh Sock Advent and am motoring on.  But, I am showing my daily progress above on the Yuletide Scarf by Kay Jones of the Bakery Bears and participating in a KAL for it with Corrina's Crafty You Tube Channel.

I didn't buy an advent for it, but just so happened to have a Chelsea Yarns one from 2022 in her sparkle base that I had never used back then.  I am coupling it with some Heritage from Cascade Yarns in white and lets just say for a moment in the beginning, I thought it would make a nice gift...that didn't last long, this baby is going to be mine, all mine.

I also have a couple of other advents that I am opening daily, the Door County Coffee Advent, the Pukka tea advent that was a gift and a totally surprise and unknown to me as to who gifted me with it, a Snoopy Chocolate one!!

I finally finished another Musselburgh (#9) out of Malabrigo Ultimate Sock Yarn in the Pocion colorway.  Isn't it perfect for a male?!

I managed to pull all the other Musselburghs out, with the exception of two on the needles, one that I gifted and the one that I made for me for Norway, to get a pic of them all before I donate to our local high school's, Dragons Closet for those who may need a Winter hat and not have one or the funds to do so.

It has been fun knitting them, and I am going to continue again next year, using PYS yarn that I have collected over the years.

My version of knitting socks on the go.

Thats all for today, I will be back with more knitting content very soon.  Stay warm!!
