Sky Scarf

We are in the midst of the longest, coldest winter in many years. 

Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow. Since the first of January we have had only two cloudless days. We have had six days with partial sunshine. 

Last fall I decided to make a "sky scarf" for 2014. I chose five colors, one white, two grays and two blues. Each day since January 1 I have knit two rows in whatever color the sky most resembles that day. Here is the result so far:
There is a notable lack of blue. The above picture represents 36 days. Today's stripe will again be white. 

Other WIP right now include a large wrap in a cabled pattern, a shawl for myself made from two skeins of hand dyed sock weight yarn, and a pair of socks. Not bad! Only four active projects.

Til next time,
Knit on!
