We arrived on Monday and are staying at Homestead Resort in Midway. There's been lots of snow here this winter, judging from the accumulation. You know it's bad when you have to shovel the roof.
Even though it's freezing, it too beautiful to stay indoors. So bundled up in my warmest wool handknits, I ventured out this morning to take pictures and experience the magical Winter Wonderland.
If I lived here, I would knit lots of sweaters and fewer frivolous knits.
And of course, always have a pair of warm wool socks on the needles.
Started on the flight over, using Trekking XXL in a gorgeous deep blue (#77).
Gorgeous photos, it's so beautiful there. Dale says that looks like a mule deer. Is it?
ReplyDeleteMan do you take nice shots!!! Also the cool blues in the socks are fantastic! Have fun playing in the snow!!!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI miss seeing wildlife. When I was a child we lived in the country and there was a family of deer that would come right up to our back deck.
I haven't seen a sight like that it an very long time!
How do you like the Trekking XXL, that is one of the things carried at my LYS....but I have very little experience with any type of "skinny" yarn (ie...something suitable for socks...not bulky ones :-)
Oh dear! You are in for a cold one! Stay warm and enjoy your visit!
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous pictures and the sock is lovely as well.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
Oh, isn't it lovely up there? Write me if you'd like to meet up.
ReplyDeleteBlue skies to go with your blue socks!
The snow is beautiful! Are you skiing? I guess the hat and mittens *are* getting good use now!
ReplyDeleteYeah, yeah, yeah...that's the stuff I get to see 5-6 months of every year. It's not pretty to me any more, but I DO like your photos! You have such talent! You can enjoy the snow because soon you can turn around and get warm again at home. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteI swear, as soon as I got done reading your posting about the snow, I got up to let the dogs out and looked out the window and it was snowing here at the beach. It was only flurries and for about 30 minutes, but boy was that weird! The snow looks really wonderful! Have a great time!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a gorgeous winter wonderland!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are gorgeous, especially that one with the deer in the creek! I love that color of Trekking. I made hubby some socks with it and wish I had made them for me! :o)
ReplyDeleteOh my...these are beautiful pics of Utah! Wow! Thanks for sharing. Yes, I bought that book "Natural Knits..." because of you! I agree, it has great baby sweater patterns.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous photos! I hope you had a glorious time.
ReplyDeleteGreat wildlife pictures! I think all that yarn you bought fell out of your bag and got in front of the camera lens in one picture!
ReplyDeleteThat deer picture really Knocked me out! All the shots are wonderful great composition.
