Happy New Year

What a beautiful blanket - well worth all the effort. I've never seen that stitch before - effective isn't it?

Happy new year ! :)

Happy New Year to you both, Klahanie! Good to hear your property wasn't flooded.
Lovely pics as always. I shall look at your YouTube video.
Your bread looks tasty too, plus I do admire your skill in knitting that lovely blanket. I do like the sage colour.
Best wishes! 🔔

Happy new year - loved your videos . The barred owl too .

Thank you for your good wishes, Klahanie. Your knitting is lovely - I've just had to unravel a large part of a jumper I'm knitting so goodness only knows when that will be completed! I admire your tenacity.. And I envy you your cooking skills, the bread looks scrumptious.
I shall look out your video.

Happy New Year to you too,Klahanie,thank you for your good wishes,and I love your photo's,especially the cosy Blanket you are knitting..I used to knit a lot,but I don't have the concentration ,or the patience ! lol.

Let's hope 2023 is a good year for us all.. xx.

Happy New Year Klahanie!
I love the blanket and sometimes wish that I liked knitting, but unfortunately I don't!
The colour is lovely and is similar to a blanket made by my daughter in law for our great grandaughter.

Happy New Year Klahanie, the photo's are great as were the ones on your previous post, that blanket looks lovely, I haven't knitted anything since my grandchildren were tiny, now my fingers wouldn't allow me to, the last time I saw that particular stitch in use was on a hot waterbottle cover I knitted over 65yrs ago, the last knitting project I actually finished in junior school, my headmistess called it a crossover double purl stitch, done in red and blue, the crosstitch was the blue part , I clearly remember forever getting the two balls of wool tangled, thankyou for reviving that memory....I hope 2023 is good to you xx

A happy New Year, Klahanie! 😀 I love your pictures of the Amaryllis - you put me to shame! 👍😂

BTW, our daughter gave me an Amaryllis for Christmas 😀 40 years to the day when one of my sisters gave me my first ever Amaryllis! 😀

Love the colour and pattern of your blanket - someone is going to be very cosy.

Hope you have a great year ahead of you.

Your Amarylis also have a cosy feel to them!!!

"... they can be little finicky to grow (for me)"

They practically grow with little intervention from us! They are no more difficult to grow than Daffodils! Just they will die if they get frosted or frozen!

I've been growing them ever since one of my sisters gave me the first one 40 years ago on Christmas Day! I've written several blogs here on GoY about how to look after them & how to get them to flower year after year! Even how how to grow them from seeds! My very first blog on GoY was about growing Amaryllis from home saved seeds!

Happy New Year... I'm a little tardy. Dec. and Jan. have been very un-winterish here... rain, freezing rain and dark, dark, dark. How did you weather the arctic incursion? have family on the ocean up-island who experienced minus 26 degrees C. They were up thawing water pipes in the wee hours. these anomalies are too common. Anyway! hope you have a happy, healthy 2023!
