Some mysterious knitting has commenced in our household.
I cannot say what it will be, but the yarn is Rowan coccoon in the mountain shade, knit with a strand of kidsilk haze in the putty shade. The resultant fabric is utterly lush, looking very like rich, loamy earth and mud or alternatively, a kind of yarn-ish Christmas pudding. I think the resulting garment will be gratifyingly soft and warm and the yarn is an absolute pleasure to knit with. The last-minute flurry of housework, cleaning, scrubbing the floor etc. is eased by having this project on my needles and The Man is extremely curious. I let him handle the swatch and he was suitably impressed with the texture of the knitting, but has otherwise been very good and not asked me any questions about what I am up to.
Thus: today’s advent calendar image:
