I haven't posted a lot of knitting on here in the last few years. Not much to say about it but I still knit. I knit because I love to create. I knit because I love sweaters. I knit because I grew up with a mom who is artistic beyond the acknowledgement she receives, and it's in my blood to do something creative. I knit because I love the good things God grows, like sheep and wool and muskox and cotton. I knit because I love colors. I knit because my boys wear what I knit. I knit because I like the rhythm. I knit because it has a beginning and an end, and they are achievable. I knit because when my hands are busy, my mouth slows down, and it gives my brain a chance to make better decisions. I knit because I'm really, really good at it, and it's one of the few things that others acknowledge, and we all need that. I knit because I love to knit. I'm working on a colorful shawl in alpaca.

Nice picture! No costume here. And I'm sure you don't want to hear me whine about market being over Halloween again LOL! Are YOU working on a Halloween costume?
ReplyDeleteNo costume but I did make a Halloween pillowcase for my 4 year old great nephew. Turned out cute I bet it is in his mailbox today. Today, tying my scrappy Courthouse steps.
ReplyDeleteCostumeless here, Karen! But we sure enjoy seeing what all the trick or treaters are wearing! Are you making costumes for the boys? Great pumpkins, too!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
I love this picture! We have a Halloween party on Saturday, but I haven't figured out a costume yet. Maybe I'll just wear my blue hair I knit last year! I wanted to try sewing some kind of decoration, but haven't done that yet, either :)
ReplyDeleteOur two best pumpkins were stolen from the community garden; it kind of put a damper on my spirit but I'm working on it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pumpkins--are they from your garden?
