September 2007
I was so fascinated by the edging on that last afghan in August that, for the next afghan, I decided
to add some blocks that would show the variations possible with that
stitch pattern.
Watch this space to see how it turned out!
Meanwhile, I delivered another batch of chemo caps to the Wellness
Community, including some in autumn colors - Chocolate and Honey. The
coordinating multi-colored yarn was named "Embers," which seems so
appropriate for the season, especially SeptEMBER. [yeah, yeah,
groan....]
I included the two deep purple ones (they look blue in the photo),
because the first two I did in that color were immediate hits. I hope
these two go as quickly, now that the weather is turning delightfully
cooler. The big funky red carnation turned out to be great fun, though a bit bigger than appropriate for most hats.
With the cooler weather coming on (and some great sales at local yarn
purveyors), I finally tried out a pattern for a hat and scarf that uses
a really large hook and super bulky yarn. This set worked up really
fast!
And I enjoyed a wonderful Mini-Retreat on "Abundance and Letting Go" -
autumn topics, both. I was able to share an abundance of preemie caps
and let them go, by inviting the other participants to take one. Those
of you with sharp eyes may recognize the yarns from previous
pictures! I used up a lot of scraps on this batch (for a total of
at least 100 "Happy Hats" since January).
