To me!
Today I am celebrating 2 years since I started blogging. I kept thinking I would write something profound but…thinking is a skill I am short on these days…still fighting off a cold and…not getting a lot of sleep so…
In lieu of something profound, let’s celebrate!
Until December 7th, all commentors at the blog will be entered into a draw for a major stash busting prize package. With a few extras of course. It’s my way of saying thank you – I’ve grown a lot as a knitter and a blogger since my first posts (and if you don’t believe me go look at the archives…) and not a little of that is because of you!
I want to show you the wonderful hat my Mom made for me.
This is Nora Gaughan’s Droplet Hat from Knitting Nature – a truly inspired book of patterns.
Being modeled…
and on me after keeping me warm all day while I was out sledding.
It was a perfect day for sledding – just look:
Best of all – it’s still snowing! No rain in our forecast til next week – pretty surprising for the West Coast. I couldn’t be happier.
They don’t mind either.
very very cool snow man!!!
I’m jealous of your snow! Happy Blogiversary!
Happy Blogiversary. It’s been nice getting to know you! LOVE that hat.
Look what you made me do :-p I just told the hubby that when we get our first snow fall this year I am making him help me build a snowman, yep once again blogland makes me wish being 10
Your mom is amazing. What a great hat!
I’m a bit green with jealousy – Snow! – Honestly, now you are just showing off… have fun in the snow.
Happy Bloggiversary. The hat looks great (all those bobbles!) and I too am very envious of the snow. Trade you a palm tree for one!
Happy Blogiversary!!

Love the hat – and the snow! Now, did you mean snowmobile sledding or sledding sledding? ;o)
Happy happy blogiversary!
Can I say I hate you and still be eligible for your contest? ;o) You people and your snow pictures are KILLING ME!!! So beautiful. I love the hat too!
Happy blogiversary!
Oh yeah, and is this your solution to reduce your stash in ‘08? Sounds good to me!
*yearns for snow*
Very cool hat
Happy blogiversary!!!!! I cannot believe how much snow you guys have!!!!!! We have had one snow day (buses cancelled, but the schools stayed open) but it is all melted by now. Those trees look like a Christmas card! Does Kira enjooy a little sledding, perchance? Bear is not sure what to do (at least that was what happened last year- he kind of looks at us for permission to chase the sled!)
Happy blogiversary! That hat is really cool…but what impressed me most was that you wore it sledding. I can’t wait for it to snow here. I haven’t been sledding in so long!
Congratulations on two whole years!!
Love the hat, and my boys are completely envious about your snow – all we’re getting right now is wind, and lots of it!
Aaaah, I’ve found you again! Happy 2 years. x
Snow! And snowmen! I’m jealous. Your mom did an awesome job on the hat — it’s so cute!
Happy blogiversary – and yay for many more years of great writing, beautiful knits and stunning photos!
I absolutely adore the hat your Mom made for you, it looks fantastic! And look at all that snow! We’ve been getting more snow this year than we got in all of last years’ winter – and I so hope it’ll stay, I want to go skiing!
Congrats and Happy Anniversary!! I found you via Fiberflix on Raverly and decided to pay your blog a visit! May your blog live in indefinitely!
Very pretty snow. Don’t worry, your rain isn’t missing, just lost. We’ve got it here in Toronto
All that snow makes me want to sit by a fire with a mug of cocoa and some wooly knitting. California born and raised, it all looks cold to me.
Happy Blog-iversary!
Love the snow pictures. We got our first snow of the season this weekend too, but not nearly so much or so pretty.
Congratulations!! I envy the snow. I’m a sixth grade teacher, and with 3 weeks left until break, I could really use a SNOW DAY!!
