Slowly the seasons change. Summer moves into fall. With it comes the desire to be home. This movement is always an introspective time for me. I tend to hunker down and retreat.
Putting out reminders of the season is calming. The garden needs to be put to bed, and as our temps are cooling, I should get something done. The back garden is disgraceful. It takes so much heat and I just can't work in that heat anymore. The front garden is more shaded and this year survived very well.
That little sweater I knit weeks ago will be gifted to a granddaughter this weekend. It is birthday time for Evelyn and brother Luke! I am putting the buttons on today and wrapping it up in a sweet box. Knits needs special treatment don't you think?
lovely sweater and buttons! We are just starting to get cooler temps... I long for a true autumn, not sure what this one will bring weather wise.... Blessings to you!

ReplyDeleteHello, I found your blog via Ginny's. I have lots of wee ones (& bigs too) I knit for. I love your sweater and your button choice. Could you tell me the name of your pattern? Thank you. Going to drop hints for one of your bags for a Christmas present:)
