Are you curled up at home, possibly in front of a warm fire? Or did you have to trudge out this AM, dropping kiddos at school or daycare? Need a little color and creativity?

We are open. Parking lot is in decent shape. We have lots of color, texture and ideas to warm the mind if not the body.

We'll give you a little taste: Bamboo and silk in worsted weight, Lino (linen) in worsted weight, Lonco Multy and Lonco solid in sport - it's 100% mercerized cotton; Babybamboo in new bright colors; Ruca in multys and solids -yes it is sugarcane! Tabali is a chunky cotton from Ester Bitran and has a thick and thin quality as well as silky.

Hapi'i from The Mirasol Collection is in. I like to support companies that are civic-minded.

This is just a taste of what's coming in for the warm weather - yes, there will be warm weather ...someday.

Stay safe, warm and keep those fingers working to pass the time while the wind howls and blows and makes today a day for hot chocolate, tea and cookies ... and a little knitting or crocheting while watching the USA in hockey at the Olympics. Could this be a repeat?

For all of you in Ravelympics, keep working. It's not over yet.
