Snow, Snow. And more Snow.

I'm beginning to wonder if it's going to stop.  We've had another 10 inches in the last two days.  More tonight, Mother Nature thoughtfully mixing it with ice for the sake of variety.  And Saturday it's supposed to snow again.  The piles of snow are getting so high that just finding a place to put it has started to be a big issue.   I've found myself inching my way forward in a parking lot intersection, trying to peer around an immense pile of snow, hoping that there's not some monster SUV barreling down the other way.  Here's the scene outside the dining room window.  I think the chair's going under.  This weekend's snow may just do it.

  

And I'm still knitting little things.  There are two people at work expecting babies in early spring.  So it was time to dig up some baby sweater patterns.  This one is Playful Stripes from Never Not Knitting.

And here are booties that I just couldn't resist. The pattern was in Danish, but with the help of a translation table for knitting terms, a good picture on Ravelry, and vague memories of having knit booties with similar construction more than 20 years ago, I was able to figure it out.

They're little red snow boots - at least that's what I think.  Your guess is as good as mine as to what the pattern really said.
