Yes, I have turned into that kind of person. I just think Daisy is so cute!
It was warm yesterday, so we went for a walk. Daisy's Arctic ancestry is showing in her love of playing in the snow.
She also practices yoga, and tried out for the role of cat, by climbing into the cat tree. The cats are not amused.
My artistic activities have been progressing very slowly.
I quilted the Polaris quilt and added a binding. Karen suggested a scrappy binding, and it looks very good, although it does take time to sew all the pieces together. I am currently hand stitching the back side.
I expect to be able to show you the whole quilt later this week.
I have also been working on a sock.
A knitter on Mastodon was making this sock, and I just had to try it.
I am currently this far along on the first sock. The pattern starts with the bottom of the heel, as a hexagon, until you seam it at the instep with a three needle bindoff. I'm currently knitting the foot out to the toe. The last step is to knit the leg.
The pattern is Hipsulaisen Karuselli and it is a free pattern on Ravelry.

The indoor flowers have been putting on a show that we are missing much of the time. However, I caught this hibiscus flower the other day.
It is -13C today, but there looks like a promise of maple syrup weather soon. This was the view from my front door the other night.
The little Christmas trees are buried under about a metre of snow, it will be awhile before we can get them out, so we might as well enjoy the light they give until the snow melts.
