I’m double doubling!

It seems cool enough to break out the serious yarny stuff – just & only in the evenings. I’ve noticed a welcome crispness to the mornings too which is pretty great for the run.

Hoping you all have a fabulous day.

Do pop in & add your link if you’re playing along this week.

    It is starting to cool down in the evening/morning. I love this time of year, beautiful days filled with sunshine and cool nights to snuggle up. Love the yarn you’re using, enjoy your double knitting!

    Whereas I seem to spend whole summers swathed in the making of yarny stuff! Shall consider the crocheting of a bikini for the depths of winter…

    Delicious colour, that.

    The transition to Autumn is so inspiring, isn’t it? The onset of cooler weather and the beautiful colours outside somehow make the perfect conditions for settling in and cooking up delicious creations… like your gorgeous blue knitting project…

    I’m double half-doubling today. I think it must be the cooler change that Melbourne is putting on for us, that is inspiring more play with yarn..which I love. Beautiful colour yarn too.

    It really feels like Autumn here in Sydney already. Bring it on! I love Autumn to bits. The only trouble is that with the cool weather comes my overwhelming desire to knit… which traditionally lasts about five rows and three dropped stiches.

    Enjoy your fabulous work! x

    It is starting to cool down to a pleasant temp – though I don’t think I can get the wool out just yet! That’s a lovely blue in your wool – it reminds me of the colour of wintery seas.

    Hi Kirsty… I’m loving the new look. Sorry I haven’t been by in a while. I kind of lost the blogging bug, but hopefully I’m over it now!! The yarn is beautiful – the texture is what appeals to me – it looks like cotton which I love, much more so than a woolly yarn….

    Hope you are well
