Oh Portland, Silly Portland. Why must you freak out over a little snow? We are supposed to be socked in with snow today. It is early, granted, but all I see so far is slush and lots of rain. Phooey. In any case, I am prepared with my recently finished hat/mitten combo. I knit them for running in cold weather, but the timing is good if the promised snowpocalypse materializes. These are knit in Berroco Ultra Alpaca and I used Ann Budd’s Handy Book of Patterns. Quick and easy.

It was gorgeously snowy from about 10 to midnight, and I should have gone out and frolicked in it then. It was raining by 1 a.m. and thus, this morning’s slush. Too bad; I wanted to enjoy it before it left!
As usual, I slept through all the good parts. The drive to work was not so bad, thank goodness!
