ALMOST MADE IT (weather update)

Just 4 days into 2025 and Magdalena's Animal Parade is finally all hooked; not steamed but it is hooked.  If only I'd worked on it a little more each day for the last couple weeks I could have had it finished in 2024.
The rug is so long I couldn't see what was being captured in the photo and I don't stand on chairs or any type ladders any longer unless I have one hand on something to steady me.  Therefore the rug isn't straight.

So next comes the cleanup and have a pattern to draw for someone and my next one.  However, there is that plus one I drew but will need to do the wool clean up before that one can even get started.

Am making vegetable soup and it smells good.  Will certainly be yummy in the tummy when the the winter storm hits.  Last night we did get some rain and a dusting of snow.  The screenshot below shows what is coming.  You can see that Seaford (on the right) is in the 4-8" snowfall area.  What will actually drop, who knows.  I'm ready and hope my power stays on so I can heat up my soup, lol.

WEATHER UPDATE:  The storm has been upgraded and I'm now in  the 6-10" of snow from 4-8.
Below is the previous prediction.  So guess it is the luck of the draw.

Guess I'd better go stir the soup, pour myself a glass of wine and get ready to separate the wooly worms into their proper colored baggies. Have a great Saturday evening.

  1. YAY first rug of 2025 completed. Looks mighty fine. No snow here but the high was only 20. Although Tundra liked being outside, I was freezing. I made soup yesterday. Ham and bean to take off the chill. Hope your power is still on so you can enjoy yours. Janice

  2. Animal Parade is a great finish and 2025 is off to a great start with a finish so early in the new year!
    Hopefully the weatherguessers are wrong about the forecast.

  3. Yay on the finish! It turned out great! Wow...can't believe you don't have a pattern with wool ready to go but I know you will have soon. I'm going to Cathy's for a few days the week after next and need to figure out what I'm going to do since I surely don't want to have to sit and bind. Heaven forbid. That's a good amount of snow predicted to fall. I'll have my fingers crossed that you keep power. Just a few flurries here but nasty cold. ~Robin~
