… i get to leave the office during my lunch break and spend an extra hour playing with my dog. it’s been cold but beautiful out lately. the less often you see the sun, the more you appreciate it.

it had been a couple years since i’d made myself a new hat. this hat and mitt set was simply worked in single crochet in the round. while i wear a lot of neutral colors, i was happy to see the bright oranges and deep blues pop out of the handspun wool. the hat has withstood a lot of wear, but our few sledding and snowshoeing trips we’ve managed to get in so far have let the mitts get a little fuzzy. wet wool is still warm!
