I'm So Naughty...

Not only have been neglecting my blog, I've also been starting new projects before completing the ones I'm working on. I will blame all of my inability to complete one lousy project before moving on to the next on the cold that seeps through every nook and cranny of this old house and has numbed the last few remaining brain cells I have. I’m am trying very hard to be upbeat and remind myself it will be warm again, when all I really feel when I look out my window and see all that snow, is that it's never going to melt, nor be warm again. [sigh]

Ah well, what better project to stir the need for spring then a flower basket?



I'm using Paton's Classic Wool, doubled, in Sage, Black, Bright Red and Deep Olive.




I'm working on finishing up the roses...9 more to go and then I can felt them, along with the leaves.





Since I've been hit with the blahs, I've been browsing the online shops and happened upon these new knitting bags. I'm contemplating buying one. I'm not certain about the style though. What do you think?

I know what you mean about having the winter blahs, but Spring is just around the corner! Keep repeating this to yourself. I keep trying to picture the flowers I planted in the fall blooming soon, but you knit yours, you clever girl!

I like the pink square one. It opens up on all sides, so you can fit more things in, as well, find the items inside easier.

Your flower basket is adorable.
I love those bags. I'd go for the pink. Where did you find them?
