February Purples...

At this time of year, I always find it hard to get motivated to do just about anything. The grey, wet Pacific Northwest winter has seeped into my bones and any prospect of warm weather and sun to drive it out is a long way off still. It's way too easy to just grind to a halt and hunker down. Maybe it's no accident, then, that I suddenly realize I have tried to stuff way more into the next several weeks than I meant to. I have a project I'm finishing up for Knit Picks (Bulky yarn FTW!), one new pattern about to go into testing, and contemplating another to try to cram in before Vogue Knitting Live hits the Seattle area at the beginning of April, not to mention a proposal to write up and knitting new models for older patterns to display in the Hazel Knits booth at VK Live! February Blues? Ain't nobody got time for that! It's all about the February purples right now...
