We met our first baby lambs in February. A friend’s sheep gave birth to twin boys over a very long weekend where the mother almost didn’t survive. Happily she is doing fine now. Incidentally, they are Shetlands, which I think is wonderful.
I managed to find a lot of knitting time and almost finished the Tea Leaves cardi. I finished Jay’s birthday hat and have started another one. I hunted down and found the perfect yarn for my Big Stitch Rug which I’m thrilled with, although I seem to drop stitches very easily, and very often.
February was a social month with friends coming over for dinner, and lots of play-dates for Heather during the week off school. There’s been a good deal of ice skating as well as her second ever skiing lesson. She mastered the tow rope. Valentine’s was sweet and finally Winter seems to have arrived. Lastly, I had my eyes tested and now I have glasses which is taking some getting used to.

/ March 2, 2012Your winter sounds like ours (minus the farm animals). Love the photo montage.
You wondered about the catalog I was looking at – Knit Picks. I just can’t get over the prices.
Happy knitting (and crocheting) from Minnesota!!
