It is mid-term over here and we used our free time to spend some days there.
It was fun, especially for my DS and we had wonderful sunny weather if only a bit too cold.
In the meantime, I knitted and knitted and ...
First I made a bolero thingy. It is very light (only a bit over 50 gr or 2 oz) and a nice blend of kid mohair and silk. Pure luxury!
Then I knitted a wrap out of wool which was given to me (always the best!)
It is the right thing to wear right now as it is very chilly in the mornings when I go to work and it fits well over a suit.
Then with the yarn I had shown last time (the thick one), I knitted a bowl which I felted. It is practical to put some more yarn and if the weather gets really cold I can wear it as a hat! ( it reminds me, my sister wanted a hat, I wonder if ...!)
In the two free days I still have, I intend to spin, to dye and to sew more confetti blocks. I wonder if I will manage all that.
I wish you nice autumn days with sun , sewing and knitting.

Wow the wrap is so gorgeous and your sweater is also lovely. You really turn out the goods!
Hello supermodel,
I like the wrap, but don't bother knitting me a hat like this or my recylcing bin will get even fuller! (It is already quite full with my kids handy work !! ) (did I really say this !!).
Happy Halloween

Beautiful. I love that shade of gray! Your little basket for your yarn is precious.
Très jolis le cardigan et l'écharpe.Mais comment fais tu pour trouver autant de temps à consacrer au tricot.

Gwen - I'm using a slippery yarn on my current project, is it better to stick with the metal needles that I prefer or is it better to use my wooden ones instead?
Félicitations Gwen,vos tricots sont très réussis, j'aime beaucoup l'écharpe.Moi aussi, je tricote en ce moment, cela ne m'était pas arrivé depuis deux ans!
