SpringTime any time soon?

You all know that I am a cold weather/snow lover.  Yep, true confession time here.  I do.  It's born into you when you are born in very northern climes I swear.  I really do love snow but not when it's almost April!!!!  Cheezz.. enough already.

Now I really don't want it to go to 80 all at once like it usually has a habit of doing here in Central Pa but I am tired of 2-3" every other day at the end of March.  So in some ways it has influenced my knitting habits too.  does it affect you or do you knit/crochet what you want whenever?

I am loathe to give up the heavier sweaters, blankets, large shawls.  They serve several purposes.  They keep me warm while making them; they keep me warm when finished and they mentally keep me warm and cozy.  Therein lies the rub.  It takes some time to make these things so I like to get a start on some spring/summer knitting about now but it isn't as warm on the lap as winter knitting.  If the weather would warm up a little.

Or the sun would shine?

Hopefully these projects will bring some sunshine for you.  Enjoy!
