After several disasterous knitting failures, I continue to be in awe of anyone who can master the craft. That said, the love of coloured yarns lives on in my house with a lovely variety of crochet hooks. Our first snow today and it's a good time to start a new project.

I share the sentiment, especially after I spent two hours yesterday struggling with the second-simplest stitch ever even as I watched videos about it. I prevailed but mastery is a very long way away. Crocheting is just as wonderful! Happy first snow, as we like to say here.

Happy first snow. I love it. Thank you. And everything is so beautiful. Quieter somehow.

You and your family are too close to Ukraine, Irina. Will Putin retaliate with nuclear weapons? Will Zelensky actually take that first shot? Please consider your Plan B. Canada is plenty far away ...

Well, due to the close cultural and historic ties between Bulgaria and Russia, current crop of local politicians notwithstanding, I (like to) doubt we'd be first in line as a retaliatory target but things certainly do not look good. Canada is comfortably far but, well, Trudeau is there... :D

Can we get a photo of Vlad in his new togs?

I did not think of adding Vlad to the list of potential victims but now I will, thank you. :D

Extend it to about twice that length and Cat can use it to play Tom Baker's Dr. Who next Halloween....

LOL! However did he not trip in that, I wonder.

I think he was pretty tall and he looped it up and down and around about four times.

Thinking a bit more -- it was all filmed. Maybe he did trip on it and they edited those parts out.
