I like this just fine. Next year I might have to stitch up another pair in this series as I'm not yet ready to join the Mitten Knitting Brigade.
Speaking of mittens, the forecast is for a bit of snow tonight / tomorrow morning. In western Oregon that's just crazy. Usually if we've not had snow by mid-February, then it'll be a snow-free winter. The possibility of snow is especially wacky as on Sunday I worked outside for a couple of hours watering my Front Porch, Greenhouse, and Under the Eaves plants. I enjoyed the sunshine and warm temperatures. Parvati, a long-haired cat, got so warm she moved into the shade. I worked comfortably without a coat or even a sweater in a short-sleeved cotton dress. Craziness.
Okay today I'm sharing Cute Chipmunk Photos - enjoy!

Chipmunk Cheeks!
Squeee!!! Chipmunks are toooo cute. =) I love the mittens, even though there are two and not six. =)
ReplyDeleteThose mittens are just adorable! Washington joins Oregon in the crazy weather department!
ReplyDeleteLove the mittens :)
ReplyDeleteThe first picture of the chipmunk - I thought he was sitting by a chipmunk sized pool, and wondered why you had a chipmunk sized pool, til I realized it was your planters lol
Love the mittens!
ReplyDeletethe mitten finish is so pretty...love the green & purple together...
ReplyDeleteas for the chipmunks, yes, they are adorable, but would you like the ones we have here???? They are ruining everything......so destructive.
Congrats on another finish!! Love the colors! I love your pics of the chipmunk - they are sooo cute!!
ReplyDeleteCute mittens and chipmunks!
ReplyDeleteI think we gotcha on the crazy weather. Up in Southern Indiana, about 50 miles from me, they were devastated by tornados on Friday, and now have 3 - 4 inches of snow. That's crazy!!
Congratulations on your latest finish, Beth--lovely colors in this one... And I love Mr. Chippy--there is just something about those dear little faces that is irresistible--that is until they begin digging in our vegetable garden like they did last summer!
ReplyDeleteHello
ReplyDeleteI love your mittens they are so lovely.
Great chipmunk pictures they are cute as anything.
Soft color combination in the mittens....I love them... And you are right, chubby chipmunk cheeks~~
ReplyDeleteNice job, Faye
Love the mittens -- so cute! And the chipmunks -- I love chipmunks! I wish we had them in our area but we don't. :(
ReplyDeleteI love chipmunks. How can one not they are so darn cute. You take awesome pics. What kind of camera do you use. Have you always enjoyed nature and photography. What other hobbies do you have. Do you sketch any of the animals you photograph. Love the finish. I have a pattern you would love. It has kittens in mittens hung up on a clothesline.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute chipmunks! Almost as cute as your mittens. With the weather you're getting, sounds like you're going to need some nice cozy mittens for yourself.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the finish! They're adorable. We're having changeable weather here at the moment, too. On Sunday it was nice and sunny and then we'd have hail. Then nice & sunny and then hail. And repeat. LOL
ReplyDeleteThe chipmunk pics are adorable!
The only chipmunks we get in the UK are the cartoon ones. They are so cute but are they a rodent in the USA?
ReplyDeleteThe weather is crazy - last week in was 19C one day and this morning we have a frost. My poor garden.
I saw in Truro this weekend an apple tree in blossom !!!
Chippy!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove it when I stumble across someone's finish of one of my designs. You did a wonderful job! Thanks so much for posting!
ReplyDeleteWe also have a very shy chipmunk living in our garden. It makes me so happy when I see him before he sees me!
