Ah, wintertime. Snow is falling outside, there’s a fire crackling in the fireplace, and Christmas carols are playing on the radio. When I was younger, that kind of evening included hot chocolate made from scratch on the stove and curling up with a good book. Nowadays my schedule is a little bit busier and I can’t always afford to just spend the whole night doing nothing. My cozy nights in might look more like cooking a hot meal and watching TV for an hour or so, but every once in a while it’s still nice to slow down and snuggle up for a night of reading in a comfy chair. Of course, you can’t get properly cozy without a blanket, and a soft crochet afghan is exactly what I love to use when the nights get cold!
