this moment...I'm excited about my new mitten

this moment - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor, and remember.

I stumbled upon this song via my husbands MySpace page. I love this band (Decoder Ring) I believe this is a song from a movie. I thought it was a fitting wintery song. Just beautiful!

this moment...we got the yarn and the kitty cat

Another of my favorite bands. They are from Iceland and this music always reminds me of crisp cold days. How I would imagine it to be in Iceland. AND how it feels right now here in New York State. Brrrr... it's cold outside.

This moment....another ahem...spindle.....

Mittens!

Not just any mittens either. Handspun yarn mittens! This is a pattern I found on Ravelry. They are called the Tip Down Mittens and it is a great pattern to showcase your handspun yarn with. I used less than 4 oz of yarn. Which is about what I spin typically at a time. I think though the next time I make these I will make them a little wider along with the thumb a little wider. I thought I would run out of yarn and I didn't. They are great don't get me wrong, but next time I am going a little bigger and I want to line them.

In an attempt to blog more I have been thinking of things to actually blog about. And seeing as how this is mostly about something I love, knitting and fiber arts, why not expand and let you know about other things I love. Music, books, photography...you get the idea.

I stumbled upon these lovely lasses from another blog: Vivienne Mcmaster (Vivienne will probably be another topic) Anyway, I stumpled upon them and just fell in love with their music. I of course went to Itunes and bought their music. Anything I could find. I wasn't disappointed. I don't think you will be either. Enjoy and let me know what you think.
