new kimono sweaters
The story behind the kimono: shortly before Christmas, my friend Diane sent me a text inviting me to look at the above kimono on HSN…she thought I’d like it, especially since it came in my favorite color…and she’d bought one for herself – in red (her fave color, I do believe). I thought, why not and told her to go ahead and order. They came; we both liked and decided to wear to quilt meeting today…
I thought is was fun that Mother Nature also decided to display reds and yellows for today’s sunrise…t’was very dramatic and a delight to watch. Tomorrow, Tuesday 8 January, the temperature’s set to rise to 60 degrees…and come Wednesday, drop precipitously, rain and perhaps even snow by week’s end. Guess that’s January.
Cheers~
I love the Waterlogue version of the photo, but would love to see a photograph of that beautiful kimono! Yes, January weather is fickle!

Fabric: 60% cotton/40% vicose. It’s not too heavy and is warm, too!

One of my to-make’s this year is the Wiksten Haori (fka “Kimono”) – I LOVE the look – and you wear it well! (also, do I spy a much-worn hand-knit around your neck that might need a 2019 refresh?!?)
