Stay Cool

I love to knit with wool pretty much all year 'round, but with so much of the US and the northern hemisphere sweltering in record heat, even I've been hard-pressed to pick up the warm stuff, switching to the lightest of wool lace-weight yarns, and other, cooler plant fibers.  Despite the heat though, my preference for wool (and mohair, angora, alpaca, cashmere, etc.) has not abated and I needed a wee bit of motivation.

Hence I share this collection of cooling images, courtesy of Winter 2010/ 2011.

Remember when it was actually really cold?  

Perhaps not.  If you live in an always-warm weather area, I hope you especially enjoy the refreshing scenery.

 

OK, now back to the wool...  Enjoy and stay cool everyone!
