It is *so* the perfect season for knitting. Would love to see what you're working on! ^_^ I'm using this as a sign to pick-up my needles again... maybe a christmas stocking or a hat...

Creating has really taken a back-seat to reading and running! But I have a little sketchbook on the go, and that's been fun! I thought this one was fun - going to add some colour later!
