Snow

I Dream of Sleeping Deep Beneath
 the Cover of Another Perfect Wonder
Where it's so White as Snow

The more I see, the less I know
The more I like to let it go
Hey oh, whoa
 
~Snow, Red Hot Chili Peppers

It is currently snowing in Utah...and how better to celebrate than to curl up
 next to the fireplace with the NVO (the perfect wonder) and crochet snowflakes?

Life is a snowy dream...

 The intent was to make many more snowflakes than this,
but with V-day right around the corner and hearts that are begging to be crocheted,
this little project will be put away until next winter.

So much to crochet and so little time!

 Thanks to Sara London
for the "how-to" on the rounded snowflake pattern

 and thank you Lion Brand Snowflake #3
for the pointy snowflake pattern.


The finished snowflakes show up everywhere:

Snow crochet on the ground


Snow crochet on the trees

I'll soon be there with snow
I'll wash my hair with snow
And with a spade of snow
I'll build a man that's made of snow
I'd love to stay up with you but I recommend a little shuteye
Go to sleep
And dream
Of snow


~Snow, Bing Crosby


  The NVO can't get enough of the snow.
 I can't get enough of the NVO.

NVO got snow in his hair from being outside dining in the snow.
(This photo was difficult to take as the snow melts so quickly.)

Go to sleep and dream of snow...
Deep beneath the cover of another perfect wonder...
