dead pine firewood infinity scarf

electricity from burning coal... climate change we don't need to do anything about that cuz there has always been climate change, mass extinction of species...
natural gas... fracking... good for the economy... get as much out of the ground to export
globalized market... economic growth

here we are surrounded by dead pine forests.  Pine beetle infestation, from climate change they say.  Local wood, local choppers.  Particulate.  Gotta stay warm around here though, still gets down to minus 20 degrees celsius at times

Burn baby burn.  Tunes on the guitar by the flames.  In the duplexes they are watching the flame channel on Shaw.  Heated through.  We can pretend we are hiding out in a cabin in the woods in here...

and knitting...

what is cozier than knitting by the fire?

Dead Pine Firewood Infinity Scarf

Manos Artesanas, Portofino 100 % wool (handmade in Argentina)  (1 ball)
6.5 mm needles

Cast on approx 50 stitches
knit one, purl one, next row the opposite.  This kinda seed stitch stops it from curling
in on the ends...  keep knitting until the end of the ball.  Sew the ends together, wind around your neck once or twice to block out the mid and mad-winter chill....
