We had a historic storm yesterday. We actually got rain (it was in the 50s the whole day), with tons of wind, and the height of it coincided with the monthly highest high tide. Needless to say, there were tons of trees down, and the coastal impacts were pretty epic.
I mention this in a Knitting Notes post, because we were very fortunate to not lose power, but we did lose the internet. (Which drove everyone to the cell network – it was hilariously bad reception all day.) And, to make things more fun, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve developed weather forecasting headaches when the barometric pressure starts wildly swinging. So, what’s a girl to do with no internet, and a bad head? Stash bust!
Here’s my existing DK/Sport weight 10 stitch blanket, now with Malabrigo Rios in Stonechat!
I’ve been kicking around the idea of starting another blanket, and I do have some worsted weight yarn saved up. Turns out both BF and my mother would take another scrappy blanket, so I started another one last night. Let’s see how many worsted scraps I can use up by the end of the year.
