November 21st 2010



It's a Sunday, (and I love Sundays), and it's snowing outside, (and I love snow), so I think it's going to be a good day.


I finished a pair of mittens a few days ago that I'm really excited about wearing. It's been chilly, (and now snowy, too!), the last couple of days, so I've been wearing them, and they're very cozy. And pretty cute, too. To make the same pattern, use this one by Norwegian designer Wenche Roald on Ravelry.


I've finished the paintings for display at Mjölk over the holidays, and hopefully gotten most of my grant writing out of the way, so it's on to a couple more jobs. I've got a commission and illustration job to do in the next couple of weeks that I'm really looking forward to.


I think it's time to go make some tea with honey and settle in at my desk for some work! Happy Sunday!

  4. Aww! I hate that! I swear by mitten strings and/or clips. What? They're for tiny kids??

  5. those mittens are gorgeous, melinda. my mom's mitten source, magda (the old lady from the Y), does not shape up. I will have my mom sadly tell her the news.

    in other news, i hope its not too snowy mid-december so i can bike on up to the junction to check out your paintings. this is an activity i definitely can look forward too!!

  6. Anthony, it sounds like we're going to have a small get together at Mjölk to celebrate the paintings and the holidays! (I'll keep you posted). There's an even better excuse to go to the Junction!
