Aside from the cool clouds, this sunrise was interesting because there was very little color. Usually, I see some orange or red tints at the bottoms of the clouds.
As I mentioned in the last post, I did finish a yarn on the last day of November.
and the close-up:

Meh... it's OK. I'm not really fond of the way the colors fell on this one. It looks a little too much like 4th of July to me. I was hoping that the teal would even out the colors, but no such luck. I have to say, though, that the fiber was a pleasure to spin. I'll buy this blend again from Royale Hare, but I'll be a little more careful with the color choice next time.
Up this weekend: The Husband's sister and her husband are visiting from New Orleans, and we're having a family party tomorrow. We only see them once a year, so it will be nice to catch up. I need to rearrange my sewing room to make room fro the bookcase that we took out of the Daughter's bedroom. I need to do this before we can rearrange the living room to make room for the Christmas tree. If things go well, we'll get the tree on Sunday.
I did manage to hang the Advent calendar, stockings, and front door wreath for a little Christmas decoration at home. I really need to start baking ASAP!!
