Happy Autumn ~

Two Harbors Poncho ~ by Kelli

Great knit and fit!  Luxurious baby alpaca and merino blend. 

Easy to follow pattern. 

You know those days where you're off to hang out with friends and you have " nothing to wear", now you will. You won't want to take it off. 

I used Still Water and Lake Ice colors ~

Good Ole US Postal Service ~ by Kelli

Do you like getting mail in your mail box? Outside from your computer?  That isn't a bill?  And has a free (usually knitting) pattern. 

I enjoy that Churchmouse sends out a quarterly newsletter that I haven't been able to set in my recycle since 2011. 

I know I can receive a quarterly email, but there's something about a hand held paper booklet that I like better. 

There sweet quotes they find and add~

             "I'm so glad I live in a world 

              where there are Octobers"

    

                 L.M. Montgomery 

        From Anne Of Green Gables

Along with a personal story, tips, maybe a seasonal recipe and other great info. 

If you haven't already sign up for the Churchmouse newsletter. The patterns they give free in the booklet that usually become for sale. And before you know it you have 22 free patterns!!! and 22 x 5.00 plus tax adds up!  Just another wonderful service of there charming company~

Almost forgot to mention.... 4 address changes.... gulp!

KNIT IT. SHOOT IT. FRAME IT. ~ tip from Kelli

Hemlock Ring Blanket~ Pattern by Jared Flood. I Knitted back in 2009.   

Take photos they can look great framed in your home. Just another idea thought you might like to know. 

Keep knitting...

Starting Pumpkin Hats!? a post from Kelli

The Autumn season is coming~  my Cinderella pumk'in patch is doing well.  I'll post that later! 

But this time of year I have fun knitting the little treasures. 

This one I'm making for my daughters good friend's new baby boy... 

Not trying to rush summer away! Just so you know. 

It's a great free Pumpkin Hat pattern by Sarah Hood, on Ravelry in all sizes!  

The pattern calls for worsted weight yarn. 

I used dk and a size US5 and US6, because I'm knitting it for a newborn. 

 I would recommend decreasing the crown of the hat different. But the leaves do help hide the chopped up looking decrease. 

It is stink'in cute!!!

It's The Fair Time!!! A post from Kelli

Streusel, a red 2nd place ribbon and a fancy red and white Best in Class Reserve ribbon. ~
