Macro Monday – From my Knitting Basket

March 16, 2026

Every once in awhile I get the urge to knit. March has been the perfect time to pull out my knitting needles. It’s been too cold, too windy, too wet and too icy to get out for walks so instead of just watching TV I’ve been playing with yarn. I’ve actually knit two projects but hated them and pulled them apart. I’m now on a third project.

Macro Monday From Home

When the temperature is too cold for a walk or taking your gloves off to take a photo, the next best option is to look for objects around the house to zoom in on.

Macro Monday – Peaking Through the Snow

…after yesterday’s freak snowstorm

A snowstorm in early November in Toronto is highly unlikely. Yesterday we had snow that lasted all day. The temperature hovered just above freezing and the roads were still warm so the snow melted when it hit the pavement. As the day went on, however, the snow started to stick and it became necessary to clean off the car.

It’s always unusual to see snow when most of the trees still have leaves and now on top of the snow we’re seeing these same leaves starting to fall on this fresh blanket of snow.
