It's so wet and dark here today I feel I should be writing my Christmas List. And the boiler is broken again. I've been out and about all morning; but now that I'm home, it's a toss up between a few star-jumps and some very fast knitting to keep me warm:
Of course the knitting was going to win. Especially as I've taken a real fancy to this book since I opened it up and saw this:
Now that's come from the kind of knitter a scrapbooker would like to meet.
Today I'm Loving...the fact that I've got another week to get ready for Fathers Day.
Is this right? The Tall One and The Small One are all primed and ready, their presents picked, their cards chosen for this weekend.
Seems I might have misled them. I suppose I'm the one who has to break it to their Dad too. Hmm.

I love the colors for your knitting project! Funny that you are cold - it was 110 degrees (43 c) here in Arizona yesterday. Summer is definitely here!
Totally yummy colors. It looks like father's day coincides in the US and UK! Also with the start of the World Cup (or a few days later). My knitting friends definitely prefer to knit in the winter.

Gorgeous colours ... I know what you mean about knitting in this weather, hopefully summer will show it's face again SOON LOL
It's still fairly summery here...so no knitting at present...somehow it does always seem like a cold weather activity!!
Sorry about the boiler. AGAIN! Glad the knitting keeping you going - love the little rolled rim on the hat.
I felt the urge to start knitting again this winter but couldn't find any patterns I liked. Seems knitting shops are thin on the ground round here! That looks like a lovely book though, make sure we see you modelling the finished garment.
Gorgeous colours you're knitting with. Ooops over Father's Day. Everyone will be so disappointed at having to wait!
Not only a lovely book but some lovely wool as well. More hats? You know me it's always a knitting time of year :)
It's hotter than blazes here.. you want to come for a visit??
hehehe... I cannot even think about knitting until September!
Love your colors too!
HUGS!
I'd opt for knitting too Sian! *Ü* Love the hats and the colours of the wool you have chosen.
I have nominated you for a 'Creative Writer' award on my blog Sian. Come on over to collect it. *Ü* ~Glen~

The knitting colors are yummy and your photos are wonderful.
Amy, at Over At Our Place, has blogged a post about our online friendships. I was only thinking something similar the other day. I do believe that 'Friends come into your life for a reason, a season or forever' (as somebody said) and that it is OK to have groups of friends who never meet. My definition of a friend is someone you can share worries and triumphs with, someone who will happy for your success and sad for your trials. I guess that definitely makes us friends and I'm proud to say that. I'm going to go and post a copy of this on all the blogs I follow. Thanks for being a friend.
I've missed your blog :-) Just had a lovely catch up, admiring all your gorgeous projects and enjoying your fab posts xx
Love that quote!! Wish I could knit... look forward to seeing your creations!
