Tomorrow is April. Today is . . . well . . .
see for yourself.
No bother. It's quite nice to wake up with the wind howling, the snow flying, piling up at the windows. Minnesota spring is muddy and gray for a very long time, so if that's how it's going to be, having it all wrapped up in a white, cozy snow storm is fine with me. It will probably melt tomorrow. And best of all, I finished this lovely scarf this morning; just in time, eh?
Specs: Pattern - Noro Scarf - K1, P2, changing skeins every two rows.Yarn: Noro Silk Garden - ? Can't remember color. oops
I think I am done with Noro yarn*, however. It's expensive and there are twigs and knots throughout the yarn. I used to think it was rather quaint. Kind of like, I used to think acrylic yarn was fine.
*I have a ball of Noro sock yarn that I'll try, then I'm done. For my A Year In Socks challenge, I gave one of my Noro sock yarns to my mom. (I'm hoping she'll knit that up before me so I can see if I like it).
Ooh, and speaking of A Year In Socks . . . I finished my March socks just in time:
SPECSKnitting goals: April - finish my Have a Heart socks, Hubby's Milk Chocolate Socks (Lana Grossa Meilenweit 100 Bosco - color 3518), start Belle's sweater . . . tulip sweater anyone?

oh, very nice bellatrix! cute shoes, too!
I know what you mean about preferring snow to grey and brown. Love the scarf and the socks rock!
Great looking socks! And a cute way to display them as well!
The snow has been a real surprise this spring. I know it does this most Marches but it does seem more frequent this year.
Love the socks and shoes. What a clever photo.
I had the same problem with Noro. The colors are glorious but I hate the junk in it.
I had no idea that Noro had vegetable matter in their yarn. Hmmm.
I can see our frost in the mornings is nothing compared to your Minnesota spring! I'm glad the Moroccan Spice warmed up your day :)
I love your socks!! That picture is fantastic!!
I'm sending "snow go away" vibes your way!! :)
And the rain was so fantastic today! The Bellatrix are gorgeous! I've been knitting on my Sock Madness today hoping that vacation didn't boot me out - but it may have...
