Discussion and Photos of our Works in Progress (Jan. & Feb.)

I've decided to do a mitred square blanket, so every day I will knit a 3" square. I did a bunch of math & I'll end up with a blanket approximately 57" square when all is said & done.

Neat! Mitred Squares will be so cool!

I am doing last year's temps and have January done. I love how patterns have started forming with the colors, its neat how nature does that! Once February starts I will to the next part, but for now I'm going to work on my other projects.

That looks great!!!

This is very pretty.

I finally decided to make a wrap since it is -25 F this morning and I am kind of cold. I wish I could cuddle in it right now but... For now I am thinking that 6 months worth will be long enough. But it is the most significant 6 months of our lives (hubby and I). The year 1981. I will be posting photos soon

Is anybody keeping a journal or log on their scarf?

Is anybody keeping a journal or log on their scarf?

I am. I usually have notes all over the place so spend more time looking than doing. Part of my 2013 "Get it Together" project I have one notebook for all of my fiber things. A quick note on what rows I knit on what day, how much rain we got the one day it has rained so far, I was watching the Commander in Chief ball while knitting. It is fun to look back, especially on a long project like this. My last big destash project was a random number generated afghan for my son. I kept notes then and it was fun and interesting.

What are you doing?

I am finally caught up to todays date! I've decided to add an extra colour (black) for the really cold days because I just can't justify -23C being the same colour as -8C!
I'm loving how linen stitch is blending the colours together.. I wish I could just keep knitting, but I got to wait till tomorrow!

Nice work so far! You're right about the patterns forming!

Where do you get the past temperature dates from

Amanda your cowl looks AWESOME!

I'm working from home today because my little one is sick. I snuck in a little knitting this morning to get caught up to today. I'm normally a very calculated knitter who plans out what colour will be used where, so do this is kind of out of my comfort zone! So far I love how it looks & I'm hoping it looks kind of like a patchwork quilt when I'm done.
