Brrrrr

Thanks to my newest blogcrush, Coilhouse, I present to you an FSM alternative to traditional holiday lights.

My office is freezing. I'm wearing, in addition to my normal clothes, a scarf, a hat, a boiled wool cardigan (buttoned up), a shawl, and a blanket, folded double over my lap. My hands: Frozen. I need to make some fingerless mitts. And soon. I can't imagine what it's going to be like when they turn down the building temperature for the holiday break. Too bad I can't bring my Living Fur Muff to work with me.

My hips still hurt a bit, but it's not unbearable. Hurray!

And here's hoping we don't get the predicted storm. I really want to go to yoga tomorrow.

Ooooh, I want to make a giant FSM too now. ^^

Too bad their greeting cards are $16/pack, I can't afford that for the massive amounts of people on my Christmas card list.

Xmas cards. Crap. I better get on that, eh?

Thanks for the reminder.

Glad to be of service!

Has your office been cold over the past several days or only today?

If so, that may explain what's been getting to your hips.

My office has always been the coldest in this suite of offices, of course. With the cold weather, it's been a little bit colder than usual, but it's not like this is a big change from the usual (frigid) climate in here.

I'm on a cold-weather-nesting knitting binge right now. If you want to drop off the rest of that red skein of yarn, I could knit those mitts for you.

For myself, I've been working on a chenille neck wrap/pull-up hood.

I used up the rest of that red on a scarf, actually. And I think I need something thinner--like mohair--for the mitts to be unobtrusive when I type. I have a pattern that looks good, I could bring it to you and see what you think.
