a bigger gimlet

During the last post I mentioned that I would like to be at the waist shaping point of Vodka Gimlet by the end of the weekend.  Not only did I make it, but I kept going.

I am past the waist and speeding towards the hem.  After knitting almost two skeins of yarn over the past two days my hands are pretty sore, but I am not going to stop.  I am loving this sweater and getting very excited to actually wear it. 

Many parts of our area have had a good deal of snow the past few days.  We saw some fall from the sky, but not much.  Being so close to the water we don't always get the snow others do.  But my favorite weather blogger is telling us we are going to have, "a major, highly disruptive snow event" over the next few days.  If he is right, we are going to get it here at the beach and it is going to be spectacular!  The larder is stocked and I have plenty of yarn for my sweater.  Bring it.

We've so far missed any of the serious snow falling south of us, just light flurries off and on. Cold though, don't think it got above 0 (celsius) today!
