@lapis It's *cold* here!

Loving Spouse helped me - convinced me, really - that for my "show your stripes" work, it would really be okay if I used the color for "nothing above zero (celsius) today". #knitting

@OldBrushNewPaper I have to confess I only have a couple guesses where you live and I know many factors go into "feeling cold" than temperature and wind.

I think it's around zero C here today and it doesn't feel that bad (but I live somewhere where -16 C is not that uncommon in winter) but the most important thing is how you feel. Use the yarn that feels right to you in knitting.

I hope you at least get to be cozy today

@lapis Zero is definitely below what we "should" have just now, but not outrageously so.

But it's otherwise been mild - too mild - which leave me nervous about what the summer will bring.

I'm glad I let myself be convinced - that dark blue (for -5 to 0) looks so nice against the several days running of turquoise (0 to +5), and the larger section of light lime green (+5 to 10)

Thanks for the kind hope - cozy is definitely part of today's recipe!

@OldBrushNewPaper oh okay. thank you.

Yeah, that's a valid worry. other than a winter storm (mostly ice, not snow) and an outrageously bad cold snap (A bit above -40 C) in December, Winter's been.... not that wintery.

I hate climate change. 😩

Don't feel obligated today, but I would love to see an in-progress shot of your work

@lapis I'll be getting "a round tuit" - I really do want to, sometime.

Although I'll be posting it at my mastodon.art alt, and then boosting it from my home account (this one).

I forget - had you seen my rainbow scarf for my Christmas guest?
