Happy Fall Equinox everyone! I LOVE Autumn! It doesn't look like Autumn here in the desert. The leaves are still green and the desert floor is its normal parched self. What has changed is the temperatures. This morning I was woken up by the cold air blowing through my bedroom window. It smelled faintly of clouds, sagebrush and creosote. Did you ever notice that each season has a scent? The scent of the air is the first change I notice. I love it!
Anyway, these are the fingerless mitts that I was talking about. I think I am instinctively nesting for winter. Normally at this time of year I am cleaning my house from top to bottom, getting the winter blankets out of storage, changing to fall/winter decor... but I have had to alter my routines this year due to our move. I just cant wait until we find out where Tom's winter contract will be. Then we can finally pick a house to live in. I can feel it coming soon!
I am doing a Celtic braid motif that I got from 1000 Great Knitting Motifs. It is the most challenging knitting project I have taken on so far. I am keeping these for me.
I finished some more baby and toddler hats. What doesn't sell will be put in my Elemental Stitches Shop.
This last one still needs a tassel on the end of the "tail".
I think a cable hat is next for today. Until Tomorrow!
Happy autumn Melissa! Your knitting is so inspiring. You make such beautiful stuff.
