A bit of Lucy snow news

By

Our area got a few small snows. Thankfully they didn’t amount to much.
Lucy enjoyed running out on the porch for a few minutes and then running back in for a few minutes to warm up, then back outside and so on.
She didn’t keep her boots on for long. They slide off her feet. She made it just fine playing in the snow without them.

My hat I made came in handy. It’s been so bitter cold here.
Thankfully, hopefully, I won’t need it as much for a while. It’s forecast for temperatures to warm up to might-near tolerable over the next several days.

Here’s wishing you all a great rest of the week.

 

 

Lucy in pink – finished my hat

By

I bought Lucy a pink fuzzy warm suit and some pink snow-booties, in case the forecasted snowstorm comes and she wants to go outside to play. Unfortunately, she runs too fast to keep her booties on and slings them off. You can tell from the photo that her pink suit in a bit short for her long legs, but it will do, I think.
I finished crocheting my hat. It’s really warm and it will be a big help if we get any of the forecasted monster ice or snow.

I thought I’d pop in and say “howdy” in case a snow or ice storm hits and we lose our internet.

Sending you all wishes for a safe and warm rest of the week.

 

 

Finished My Hat

By

I’m happy to tell you that I’ve finished making my hat. It turned out quite well, even though I made the pattern myself.
Unfortunately, the hat is way too small for my head. I realized before I added the lining that it’s way too small. It’s definitely kid sized. I totally underestimated how big my head is. 😀
My husband suggested that I should have stopped this one and tossed it and started a different bigger one.
I told him that, I would have, but I’d have to make a bigger pattern and also, I was determined to finish this one, since I promised I’d post about it here on my blog, regardless of how it turned out.
Other than being way too small, my only other issue with it, is the inside lining isn’t as neat as I’d like it to be.
I may or may not make another hat. I’d like too. I enjoyed making this one very much. However, if I do, I might go ahead and order a pattern instead of making a pattern, or not, I never know about me, until the inspiration hits. 😊

Wishing you all a weekend of sunshine and smiles.

Hat-Makings

By

I thought I’d give a try at making a hat by making my own pattern. I could have ordered a pattern, but that would be too convenient. 😊
The basic idea of how to make a pattern has been on my mind for a while now. Since I’m not working on nor planning a big project at the moment, I thought it was a good time to try my hat idea. I’ve got the hat-makings cut out and ready to sew together. After I get it made, I’ll post its final outcome good or bad. 🧵🪡

Wishing you all a beautiful sunshine filled rest of the week!

 

 

 

You know it’s cold when…

By

Iris the Lavender Leopard Gecko says,
“It’s cold out,
Think I’ll put on a hat!”

I feel sorry for my Bff and her family and their pets. They’re pretty much snow and iced under where she lives. It’ll probably be into next week before they’re melted out enough to get back to normal life again.
The above photo is compliments of my Bff, it’s her grandchild’s gecko named Iris.
I smile every time I look at this fun photo. I think, you know it’s cold when a gecko in a heated terrarium puts on a hat. 😉

Here in my neck-of-the-woods, it’s a toasty 18°. The sun is shining and the sky is clear and blue. The snow is melting some on the roads and in the yard but not in the shade. It appears our thaw has started, perhaps we are headed for warmer weather for awhile. Perhaps…

Wishing you all blue skies and sunshine
and a warm thawing rest of the week.
