Knitted Advent - Day 21

DECEMBER 21st - Midwinter Knitting

It's the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Outside my window in Oxford it is still snowing. Inside this morning's Advent window is a design inspiration from the Midwinter pottery of Jessie Tait, a 1950s classic named Quite Contrary.
