When it’s too windy or hot outside, it’s amazing to have this cozy yarn corner in the house. 🥰

Guten Morgen ☀️ For the first time this year, every day this week has seen highs over 29°C (84°F)!

I even got to use yellow for the first time (35°C/95°C) 🔥 It’s definitely starting to feel like summer—though the real heat is only just beginning…

Guten Morgen ☀️ This weekend, we stayed home for the first time since January. So good to sit outside with the cat, get rest, and catch up on the #grannysquare #temperatureblanket 😻

Nothing like having a stack of squares ready to go, and forgetting the world while attaching them. ✨

The third week of February is done and I love the color scheme! 🩵

I decided to try a round motif for the Snow Moon. And it was the first week we stayed home in a while, so the color range was much more consistent.

☀️ High temp: 21*C (70*F)
🥶 Low temp: 2*C (36*F)
