A nice way to spend a rainy day...

I'm sitting here, looking out the window at the rain and the changing color of the leaves and I know that Winter is right around the corner. I also realized that its been a while since I've posted here, or on Facebook, or Tweeted on Twitter or even updated the store. Today has been dedicated to work on all of that.

I'm going to re-list the fall/winter items that didn't sell last winter today, and work on posting the new items later on this week. I have a couple of orders to fill before I can even think about taking bids.

Even though its raining pretty hard outside, I still love Fall. I love sweater/sweatshirt weather. Nothing like curling up in your favorite sweater to just make everything feel right. Even if its just for a moment.

Also I was given a wonderful present today, 99 Yarns and Counting by the Green Mountain Spinnery, by a wonderful friend who is a huge supporter in my knitting endeavors.

The best part about this book, besides that my friend had it autographed for me, is that its put out by our local spinnery, Green Mountain Spinnery, here in Putney.

Thank you Seth, for the book.

Thank you Eric for signing the book.

I will treasure it always.

A Neckwarmer/earwarmer/headband made from Lion Brand Homespun Yarn. Fiesta was my color of choice.

I'm not one to wear hats in the Winter. I tend to overheat pretty easily, *and it messes up my hair. ;)* so I came up with this. Its perfectly sized to either keep your neck warm and cozy on those really cold days and when a scarf is just too bulky. I love wearing this style as a headband/earwarmer as well. Stylish, fashionable, soft and warm. I can wear my hair up in a bun, or down like you see in the pictures.

This scarf was made with Lion Brand Homepun Yarn in Lagoon. It was knitted in a basketweave pattern so that it would lay flat, and be easier to wrap around one's neck. The second picture shows off the way the colors flow better. Its warm, but breathable so that on cold days you can wrap up your face to preven chills but not have trouble breathing. Its also long enough that you can wrap it around your neck and be able to tuck the ends into your jacket, coat or sweater.
