opam September

Another month gone .... and another finish for September.  My youngest son has been visiting for a week so I have kept to knitting in the evenings. It has been lovely to have him here.

 The sun sets earlier now, but the sky is often spectacular. I love watching the clouds and colours change. Now if only I could paint :-)

Wishing you all a great new month, whether you are warming up or cooling down!

Good days

My neighbour harvesting the last of the golden fields .....always wonder if he'll end up in our garden one day, he comes right to the edge.  I enjoy watching the farmwork around here during the different seasons and the changing colours in the fields.

 My flowers stiff offering beauty and colour despite the colder nights and recent downpours.

 Darker evenings = busy fingers. 

 And another pouch (pattern by Geta). This one is smaller than the first I made. The pattern is really easy to follow and the result looks good. Will definitely make more of these, great as gifts.

Son #2 visiting for a few days so I am really enjoying this weekend and hope you are having a good time, too.

Autumn beauty

Autumn is on its way even though we still have warm and sunny days. Colours are changing and evenings are getting darker. 

 It is time to harvest some of nature's beauty. Sunday we picked 4,5 kilos of cranberries in about 30 minutes! Will give us a taste of sunshine in the winter :-)  I just love autumn colours.

 We stopped for a coffee break by a lake. 

 So quiet and peaceful - a break from the noise and chatter that usually surrounds us.
