Hot tea in the pot, with say, homemade biscuits, all wrapped up in our chosen warmers, and we are all good to go!

I decided to knit things for myself and the truly
Knitworthy of my family and friends. Cards with
money for the rest. They seem to appreciate
that and it’s way easier for me. They can go buy
Themselves some crap that goes out of fashion
or breaks in a week, but ultimately gets thrown away!
The Grinch (Jim Carey version) had a point about
that!

With this scarf over an outfit all in my current favorite color -jeweltones for winter- deep navy this year, I would feel not just dresssed up, but regal!

I love to wear fun hats and scarves that I have made. And I also love to make and wear fun crazy sweaters and shawls.
I make a gown from a Marfy pattern for a very elegant party I attend each year, but since most gowns are sleeveless it needs some sort of wrap to make it warm enough for winter. Last year I knitted a lovely shrug in pale green and silvery blue to go with a green gown. This shawl would go with almost anything! Also, since my most common on-line name is Sparkleberry, I felt as if this shawl was just meant for me as soon as I saw the pattern.
I know everyone says scarves are the thing and that’s very true. I have spent the last several months knitting scarves, hats and fingerless gloves for all the ladies in my life; daughters. granddaughter. daughter-in-law. my hairdresser and a few men too for xmas . but I decided to knit a few for myself in between and plan on wearing these during the winter to dress up my coat. There is nothing so lovely as a homemade scarf to make a statement that you love to knit and are proud of your humble undertakings. The store bought scarves are so cheaply made and mass produced. Nothing to compare with homemade love and charm! Happy Holidays! Sharon
I have three beautiful cashmere sleeveless sweaters that go with several different jackets, sweaters, and tunic length shirts in my closet. Add my most comfy slacks for a casual look or different length skirts to suit the occasion. If I need to go out in the cold weather, I add a separate matching cowl that doubles as a hoodie.

Layers, layers, layers!!! One never knows what to expect in the Midwest! High collared sweaters; wool vests, socks, mittens, hats, scarves. Must be prepared at all time for Arctic blasts.

In the winter I love to dress in multiple layers to stay warm. Sometimes I wear 2 pairs of gloves or a pair of gloves and a pair of mittens at the same time just to keep my hands warm!
I like to play outside in the leaves and snow so i would say a hat scarf and mittens kitteny soft.
