Fall is here and all I want to do is knit

I love this time of year, the leaves are changing color and the weather is cooler. Which means, I get to knit some fun cool weather knits. I've been browsing patterns on Ravelry to get ideas for projects for fall and winter. It's so much fun to go through the many wonderful patterns and choosing ones to make.

Like a great pair of cable hand-warmers (Traveling Cable Hand-Warmers, by Purl Soho) or a warm shawl (Jet Stream by Heidi Kirmaier). So many to choose from, so little time to knit them all! Especially since I'm already working on some projects for family and friends.

Right now I've got a few UFO's on the needles: baby blanket (Baby Squares Afghan), baby overalls (On-the-Go-veralls), baby bonnet (Marius Bonnet).

Just finished today! (10/10/17)

I'm looking forward to knitting and crocheting for my upcoming holiday bazaar in December. I will be making hats, cowls, and mitts. I ordered some bulky yarn, sport weight, and bulky wool just for the holiday show.

My old standby will of course be the owl mitts and matching hat that I have made over the years that people seem to love. I will be using my knitting machine to make some long scarves, which will be so much easier than in previous years where it seemed like knitting a scarf took forever to finish.

What are your cool weather knits that you are working on, would love to hear from you? Happy Knitting!
