First FO of 2011

I finished this a week ago. It's Anne Hanson's Cabled Keyhole Scarf. The yarn is Zara in off-white. I did one extra repeat in the length of the scarf.

Anne published this pattern in December and already there's six pages in Ravelry. It's a quick and fun project that many are calling their "potato chip scarf" because you can't knit just one!

Another Snowy Day

Another snowy day here in NYC. However, this time, I won't see anybody skiing down the street.

(Photo was taken on 12/27--after the blizzard of 20 inches of snow.)


Today's snow was short-lived and we only had a dusting of about an inch and a half.



Carrying an umbrella in the snow--this is something I just don't get it! Never saw such a thing till I moved to NYC.

In the photo, you can also see piles of garbage on the sidewalk. Because of the blizzard, my block hasn't had a garbage pick-up since before Christmas. (The Sanitation trucks double as snow plows. When the workers plow, they don't pick-up the garbage.)

After getting chores done early this afternoon, it was then a good day to get caught up with some neglected knitting



That's Ann Hanson's Cabled Keyhole Scarf. Cute and quick. A lot like this snowfall.
