Fluffy White Stuff

We've had a wintry treat for the last couple of days - lots of fluffy white snow.  It does look so pretty ..

Why didn't it surprise me in the slightest that someone had to go riding in the snow :))

And if not riding, then sliding down the road on an empty potting mix bag, which did kinda look like a lot of fun but I was too much of a sook to join him :))

This morning I made my way very carefully down the front path, accompanied by Charlie who hasn't quite worked out what to make of this white stuff...

 

... gave the smallest snowman in the world a nod as I went past :)) (might be small but he is cute!)...

...and not really expecting to see a newspaper on the bottom stairs, was very very pleasantly surprised to be wrong.  Ten out of ten to the paper delivery person - now that's commitment!!!  Breakfast was very pleasant - fire roaring, tea and toast, newspaper to read, and snow gently falling outside. 

The snow days have been perfect for finishing some projects - my pale blue jumper finally got sewn up so I get to wear it this winter, not next:)

And I've been putting some more pink granny squares together ...

...and some blue ones...

I've been knitting beanies too - just playing around with my wool scraps and having fun with some colours...

It's been a knitty month, and in between knitting I've been doing things in this room...

It was meant to be a simple repaint job .... but it's funny how some things escalate !!! You can see what I mean - over on my cottage blog - www.thecottageatthetopofthestairs.blogspot.com.

Keep warm and snug.

Happy stitching or knitting or crocheting :))
