It was 17°F (-8°C) when I woke up this morning. And yet the first snowdrops were open in my yard. These were right next to the house. The ones in the middle of the yard are just poking up their green tips. 1/2

Finished knitting my sweater. The body is commercial yarn (Kelbourne Woolens Scout) and the colorwork is my handspun BFL from Feederbrook Farms roving.
