The colors of Fall

The second red scarf is done - my box for the OFA is mailing off this week.

Project specs: Lamb's Pride Worsted in Blueblood Red on 10.5 Addis. I used the Enjoyable Rib pattern and yes, it was. The green wool is from my remnant basket.

This gorgeous (look -it's orange!) yarn is scheduled to become a Helena for a co-worker's little baby girl. She was born 3 months early, but is doing well! I think I'll be safe knitting the 6 month size.

And guess what else came early? The Harry Potter yarn! Of course, I immediately ignored my other projects so I could cast on for a pair of socks. From left to right: Lupin, Tonks (the one I started!), and Hedwig. I love Hedwig and think everyone should have an owl. However, my cats may not agree with that.

 

 The leaves here are gorgeous - I know my little Kodak can't do the colors justice. Hope you are enjoy your fall colors.

oOoO Pretty!

Here's a hinge before stripping:

Here they are stripped and beadblasted (one of the perks of working for a manufacturing facility!) I like the matte silver finish, but I still think I'm going to paint them glossy black to protect them from rusting. I also think the black will look better against the natural wood of the door.


While I enjoy knitting the second red scarf, I needed a little break. So I started an I-cord cushion for my desk chair (using some of the cut-up tees.)
