A made-to-order rainy day

Published on by Jane
Here’s Saturday’s Sky, when the clouds broke for a few minutes at about 6:00pm. Since last night it’s been nice and rainy. That’s my kitchen window up there.


Why is the rain nice, you might ask? Because a rainy Sunday means that I have the perfect excuse to stay home and knit this:


A Mason-Dixon hand towel. It’s been just the right kind of knitting for a day like today. I can’t wait to finish it and throw it in the wash to see how soft it will be. After this one’s finished I might just cast on another one! All those mateless socks will grumble, but that’s too bad.

I added a nap to my schedule, too, which is another rainy day pleasure. I won’t be getting a day off till the weekend, so I’m trying to bank some z’s. I’ve come to terms with the way it will be at work this week, and all I can do is keep swimming. Shore is in sight.

  2. Sounds like the perfect day– Mine was similar – without the MD knitting. In fact no knitting yet. But I have been catching up on movies 😀

  4. I like rainy days too. It’s the perfect excuse for curling up with your knitting. I like that hand towel. I may have to hunt down some linen.

  6. We haven’t seen rain in ages. All of DC is wilting (including the human beings who live here). Can you send a little rain our way? Wave it down with a Mason-Dixon hand towel, maybe? Thanks!
