I love Christmas Eve best of all and snuggling down to watch Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" on the telly with all the family.
The little knitted house is gorgeous.
I love the smell of woodsmoke from a warming hearth fire & snuggling up on the sofa with a mug of hot chocolate to watch christmas movies & knitting my current project uninterrupted!I love the excitement of waiting for the snow to fall as well.Its a lovely time of year:)
As I live in Australia, winter for me falls in June and July. This is a wonderful time to visit our cottage in the Blue Mountains and to go bushwalking, as the air is so fresh that it's like drinking champagne. At night it is a lovely time just to sit in front of the fire and knit. I really like the cold weather, perhaps it's because of my Scottish ancestry!
Thank you for your giveaway thought Julia.
I love to cook a lot for the family and make traditional cakes, and I love to read the new detective novels as I usually get some (also hope to receive some this Christmas).
The little knitted house is so lovely and it's a beautiful thought to present it to someone.
Lots of love,
Anna
I love cold days and hot beaverages!
Congratulations on your 3rd Birthday :)
I love all the excitement leading up to Christmas .. especially watching lots of Christmassy films with the children.
So adorable! My favorite part of winter is turning on the fire and snuggling under the blankets.
Celebrating Jesus' birth; christmas, my anniversary, and birthday all within 3 weeks of each other; lights; baking; the smell of a real tree... and the list could go on :)

That is just adorable! Thanks for the cute giveaway :)
My favorite part of winter is either snuggling in front of a fire with a blanket, or watching my little one's face when it snows. He's only two, so he gets excited every time.

Happy birthday!
I love the cozy feeling of winter and seeing how excited my children get when it snows.
I am now a follower...
I love SNOW!!! And Christmas lights...and both together, even better!!!
Thanks for the fun!
Ohhhhh how CUTE is that little house?!!!??? Adorbs! Congratulations on your third birthday! That's fabulous!! Winter eh... hm. I love a lot of things about winter. I love how crisp it feels in the morning and how pretty the frost can be. I adore the Christmas season- what a special time of year for amazing memories. Most of all though is that I love how pretty Christmas lights look in the frost. Beautiful.
Wishing you a fabulous holiday season and thank you for the chance to win!

I love the gathering of friends and family. I also like that strangers are so much nicer the closer one gets to Christmas!
The thing I like most about winter is when it is over! Thanks for the giveaway! robyn(dot)geddes(at)gmail(dot)com
What I love most about winter is the temperature, yep! I live in thailand and the temp goes down to a lovely 20C in the winter with sun shining it's great not to sweat for a month or 2!!
I love snowshoeing with my dog on those days when the sun shines and everything sparkles. I look forward to exploring the rest of your blog.
I could live in that little croft house given half the chance!! The thing I love about winter is an afternoon walk in freshly fallen crunchy snow playing snowballs with the grandchildren, then coming home to a bowl of steaming soup and hot chocolate with marshmallows then as dusk falls I light lots of candles and we all curl up on the settee and watch a movie. Congratulatioons on your 3rd anniversary and please put my name in the hat to win your lovely "croft cottage", Lucey x
That's adorable! I love the cooler weather (I'm in Texas; back when I lived in Boston, I didn't like it so much!). Especially now, 8 months pregnant, I'm REALLY liking the cooler weather!
The dark evenings means I can sit by the fire and sew or knit!
love your pincushion! i love the beauty of a walk in the freshly snow-covered woods! and snow structure building! thanks
I LOVE SNOW!!! We don't get a ton here in GA but last year we actually had a white Christmas. I hope we can have one this year too but I am not sure that will happen.
My favorite thing is peppermint bark!
Happy birthday! I'm not a big fan of winter, myself, but I LOVE Christmas! It is hands down the best part.
Definitely log fires and hot chocolate! Really love the knitted house.
Ummmm...nothing! =)
I guess that if I had a fireplace, I'd love to sit right next to it, as close as I could without burning myself, to keep warm all winter long. =)
Thank you for a chance to win that gorgeous creation!
Honestly, I like that I live in a warm place again with mild winters, ha! Thanks for the giveaway!
oh my thats lovely! i love the smell of pin and sweater weather! :) raineoc@yahoo.com
The think I love the most about winter is having a reason to wear warm clothes. There's something so comforting about sweaters, especially handmade wool ones. :)
I'm not from a winter country.. But I loves the cold weather.
Thx for the chance to win ^^v
What I like most about Winter is the quiet. Also, I was born in winter! :)
I like drinking hot chocolate or tea cuddled up on the couch with the fireplace going!
I like snow and getting to wear long-sleeves and hoodies the most (getting to see my sister who lives overseas is pretty cool too). brevistraex@gmail.com
I love snow and sunshine at the snow. And then going into the warm house and drink a hot chocolade.
The little house is gorgeous.
Listening to the wind, rain/watching the snow fall from inside my snug little cottage, feeling cosy with a cup of something warm, drinking "snowballs" as Christmas approaches........I love it all x
Nattie x
This knitted house is adorable! Happy Birthday! What I love most about winter is sitting by the fire in low light with candles and also making handmade gifts for people for christmas!!
the red roof house is adorable!! I love winter, it's one of my favorite seasons. I especially love snow and skiing (when I can get it).
What do I like most about winter...that it ends eventually.! Not a big fan! I like warmth and winter is not very conducive of that. Thanks for a great giveaway.
Christmas! I am also very fond of my microwavable neck pillow. That knitted house looks just like my parents' house where I grew up. Merry Christmas!
Confort food, and a beautiful crisp day after a snowfall.
I love snow!!!

I love the quiet of snow falling!
i must say one of the best things i enjoy about winter is when its like the last few days, cold, wet and windy outside and me all cuddled up under a homemade blanket x
That is so adorable! I need a pin cushion on the table next to the couch. Right now I'm using a ball of cotton thread. Haha. My favorite part of winter is the snow! I love tons and tons of snow!
I love freshly fallen snow and the cool, crisp clean air. I just adore winter.
Thank you for the wonderful giveaway! The house is too cute!
What a lovely giveaway! thanks for the chance to win *_*. My fav thing about winter is baking ginger cookies, make presents for my family and have special moments with friends n_n
ps. Sorry if my english is wrong
Nice cozy fire
I love the little pincushion! My favorite part of winter is the vacation to somewhere tropical we take every year. Winter is not really my thing!! :)
I love flannel jammies, hot beverages, snuggling in front of the fireplace, and ski trips where I don't ski but I get to enjoy the snow ;-)
The best part of winter is the flannel sheets on the bed!
Your tiny house is adorable.
I am not really a fan of cold weather, but I do love to snuggle on the couch with my family! The little house is adorable! Thanks for the chance to win!
My favorite thing about winter is a cozy fire in the fireplace, a mug of hot cocoa, and a great book on a lazy winter Sunday afternoon.
I love the excitement my kids show when it first snows and they get to run outside in all their winter gear and make snow angels.
What an adorable pincushion! Thanks for the chance to win. The best thing I like about winter is having an excuse to cuddle up on the couch and read a good book.

Snow...definitely snow!! Amy @ gasudimack@sbcglobal.net
That house is super cute! I love sitting by the wood stove drinking hot cocoa! Thanks for the chance to win!
I love the break we get from the humid summer heat. I only wish we could get some snow to go with the cold.
Crunching across freshly fallen snow and looking at it glitter in the sunlight!
The cottage is so adorable!
I love how it makes us prioritize and hunker down together. We live in frigid North Dakota, and there are weeks that we really can't go outside. You really debate if you truly need to go do ______, and usually just end up snuggling in tight with each other !
How cute! I love that I have an excuse to get in my comfy pants and snuggle under a blanket. :)
What a cute little cottage! Thank you for the chance to win it. :)
I like the cold fresh air in winter, and also the warm flannel sheets on my bed. I sleep with the window cracked open no matter how cold it is outside.
I love that winter means soup and bread weather. I love to cook and I love cozy nights at home. Soup and bread, a crackling fire, my husband playing guitar and my children snuggled up reading make for beautiful Winter evenings.
I am CRAZY about that little knitted house! Thank you for the chance to win.
Fireplace, sweaters, hot soup/drinks, break from the south Texas heat, holidays. Love your sweet hand knit house.

I love snow, chunky sweaters, cold toes under the blankie and hot cocoa!
Wrapping my littles in hand knits and hot chocolate!
I actually love the snow and the cosiness associated with cold weather.
I wish we had winter in my country. i think its beautiful.
That is so cute Julia! We only have short winters over here in the tropics but I do love the chance to wear my jeans and cowboy boots with a nice hand knit cardigan or shawl :-)
The cold! It's especially nice with snow covering everything without it being wet. Then because of the cold there are lovely indoor parties and coats and jackets to wear out.
The snow is my favorite part of winter! I love how pretty and peaceful it is!
Well, the open fire, gathering together with the whole family...all that silly stuff...
What a wonderful surprise you give to us.
Thank you and kind regards from Germany.

I love the snuggliness of winter. Being wrapped up in a comfy quilt, warm bread and soup for dinner, Christmas and the New Year, and eventually the delight of waiting for spring!
Darling, darling little house! Thanks!
Oh, I am swooning over the cuteness of your little house. I cannot knit or crochet for anything. I've tried many times, and my hands just turn stupid. I have such admiration for people who can.
What I love best about winter is the quiet. Everything gets so quiet here, and I feel that I can hear myself think.
Congratulations on reaching 3 yrs old! I love the knitted house :)
The thing I love about winter is wrapping up warm in big coats and boots, with hanknitted (of course!) hats, mittens and scarves, especially for walks in the snow.
Fresh snow!
I love the cool, crisp morning air. especially mornings where i can see my breath!
That is such a sweet little house! I love to look out my window at all the snow and love frost on the windows. :)

This is hard because I am not a fan of winter but I like a hot cup of tea on a cold morning. Thanks!
oooooo thats a hard question since here (Yukon Canada) is so cold and dark in the winter. I guess my favorite part of winter is the very beginning when the rivers start to freeze. In these temperatures we get what looks like ice flowers...ver beautiful.
what a cute little house !!!
Congratulation,you have a very nice blog.
I like the silence in the snow ,and I love christmas decoration.
Many greetings from Germany,
Kersti
I like snow and the brisk freshness of the air.
One of the things I really like about winter is seeing the bare trees against a bright blue sky.
Snow (we don't get much of it here) and cold, grey days that are perfect for crafting!

I love the coziness of winter evenings when we gather in the living-room and each one does what he likes. I stitch!

I just absolutely love the first real snowfall of winter. It makes everything seem so bright, clean and peaceful. I could watch the snow falling for hours!
That it isn't 110 degrees any more!
Love your little knit house, it is adorable!
I love snow, it makes me feel like a kid again!
i love snow, especially if i don't have to go out in it!
the house is gorgeous!
I love the quiet about Winter. Hibernation, the time to stay in and regroup.
Love your little house - I love the cooler weather of winter - after our sweltering summers, the cooler weather is so welcomed.
open fires. knitting. cuddling. winter woolies.
thankyOU!
I like the way everything slows down and I can sit more. Winter is reading and sewing season.
I love it when it snows, but only if I can stay home. Sweet knitted house.
The best thing about winter is sitting in my sunny corner with my stitching, all warm and snug :)
Beautiful croft house - from Sew-Happy House!
that is so cute and looks a little like my new house :) I love cosying up with a nice quilt and hot chocolate after a frosty day working outside
We don't have winter but I'd love the snow :D
Thanks for the chance!
SNOW! well and snowmen and sledging .. and .. and .. and ... you get the idea
Thanks for the chance!
Mittens and sweaters.
Thanks for the chance.
I really love Christmas and getting together with family and friends. I also love the snow- especially when I am cuddled up on the sofa with hot chocolate and some crafty goodies and watching the snow through the window.
The knitted house is fab- thank you for the chance of winning it. x
Oh, what a neat little house! What I love most about winter ... it is so nice to stay inside, cuddled up with a hot cup of TEA! Love tea. :-)
I would love to add that I like to read and sew during winter even more ... but my little kids usually prevent that. :-)
Love
Ms Muffin
I love keeping cosy by a roaring real fire, a wee tipple in hand and the company of good friends and family : ) Maybe a song and a tune ot two as well!
Hot chocolate and soup.

I love knitting by the fire!

Being cozy on my couch. Covered with my favorite blanket and working on a craft. Feeling safe and snug. Till cabin fever hits that is :)
Catching snowflakes on my tongue.

The chance to wear WOOL! Lovely giveaway!
I love wearing boots and a snuggly coat in winter!
Fog...it makes it feel like Christmas here!
Walking through the woods after a heavy snowfall...just beautiful! And being able to wear lots of wool!!
Is there a vacancy for your lovely croft? I love crispy, crinkly snow under foot and icy snowflakes on every window in my home (even though it is a sign that my home is not very efficiently "winterized."
I live in Florida, so I guess what I like most is the lack of humidity in the winter. I can actually open the windows and not have to run the AC! I do miss snow, though!
Thank you for sharing your gift!
Cute... Hmm..Christmas is coming :)
Thanks for the generous giveaway and a chance to win!
WInter... I heart snuggling my children under the crochet blankets I have made each f them!!
xo Steph
Winter....everything....from snuggling in with the knitting, crochet, sewing adventures, the lighting of the fire each day ritual, cooking cooking cooking...walking on the beach, gardening in the cool of the morning and evening, we are about to move south so this may change of course as it will be cooler. Right now we live in the north but also in the mountains so it is cool. (Australia)
Love your little house pin cushion...adorable
I love snowshoeing! then warming up and knitting! thanks!
I love to lie next to the fireplace watching a really good old movie.
Thanks for the giveaway.

I love that it gets dark early! I like to be snug in my home making soup for my family.
I love this cute little house pincushion! It would be loved in this home. As for your question... Christmas vacation! I get to chill out read a book or two, usually hard with three kids, and enjoy the family.
Winter in western Canada is very long... I enjoy it up to about February, then what I like most about it is when it's gone.
Until then, I enjoy the bright light from the sun reflecting off the snow into my house, frost on branches making beautiful scenes, Christmas carols, sledding, skating, skiing, weather above -10C, my sons's joy at playing in the snow...
Big wooly jumpers, yummy wintery soups, it's perfect crafty weather!! Your little house pin cushion in amazing!!
What I love most about winter is cuddling with my husband. He is always so warm, and my feet freeze! He's such a great foot warmer, and he doesn't mind the cold feet on him.
Sitting by the fire with my spinning wheel turning and dreaming of what I'm going to make next.
Your knit house pincushion is very cute. I have to win it since I can't knit worth an iota!!
The only good thing about Winter is that it cools off, I live in Texas and summers are a booger around here!
Thanks for the great giveaway!

I like snow and snowmen!
I really love winter fashions! All the tailored coats and scarves on the streets make everyone look terribly chic. =)
So cute! I love the crispness of the air and the bare trees.
