knitting?!
Okay then, I knit a hat. I also lined it with textured purple fleece to match my hair. Now there are slightly lame pictures. But the pictures have snow and I knit a hat …
It’s the first thing I ever managed to knit. I have no pattern because I didn’t use one, but this very helpful site taught me how to knit the textured pattern. It’s the last one, Marguerite stitch.
There’s a lot of room for improvement, but it’s cozy, it’s pointy and it’s purple.
And the ties are actually usable, so when temperatures drop and the wind becomes a storm … my new hat becomes a real bonnet, bow and everything.
Here, have some not-so-great-pictures!
I always wanted a pointy hat and a bonnet … I got the idea to combine both of them after seeing this hat
finally
Because of my accident last february, I haven’t seen real snow in quite some time. I’m still waiting for a chance to get my snowboard out again, but after 2 years of mild winters in the city I was missing the snow sooo bad.
So last weekend we went to Salzburg to explore and play in the snow. As you can see, the weather was glorious and the cameras even went for a swim.
