It’s grey and rainy in Vancouver, but spring’s pretty much already started so I’m not too worried about any unpleasant prognostications today. BING!
Regardless, instead of passing out from exhaustion at 7:30 last night, I parked myself on the couch in front of the television and finished off my groundhog (huge thanks to June Gilbank for such a fabulous pattern) for the Groundhog-along. As I mentioned in my post announcing this absurd little crochet-along, his name is Ned Ryerson, a name befitting as you can see from the photo to the right.
ETA: Check out more completed groundhogs on June’s blog.

So, has spring already hit where you are? And anyway, will you be watching the movie tonight?
