mittens

With snow covering the ground, I have been spending more time with my needles in hand. I’ve enjoyed creating a collection of patterns & designs that have inspired my winter knitting. What has inspired your knitting this season?

As the weather here is turning colder, and the leaves begin to show their brilliant display, I find that I am once again feeling a draw towards my knitting. Don’t get me wrong. I do knit year around of course – but once fall comes around, I find it easier and easier to spend my entire day needles in hand. This can cause a problem for the amount of house work that then accumulates around me. Today for instance, I was going to focus getting all the laundry finished, and all or our floors cleaned. However, once I started looking at fall knit-ware, I was unable to pull myself away. Can you blame me? Take a look at some of the inspiring & fun knitting patterns I found.
