Frantic is what you might call the last few days! Getting ready for the fair is always such a crazy, busy time. Every year I swear I will start early and every year……well you guess. Procrastination is my middle name…eek!!
The little pumpkin hat is my first attempt at designing something myself , and I am pleased with how it came out;-). It is modeled after my handspun angora blend hats with a few extra touches, to make it look festive for the Autumn.
The little pumpkin is made with left over yarn and is a fun, quick little knit. Tracey from Wool Windings created this little gem and was kind enough to share her little pumpkin pattern. You can find it here. Thanks Tracy!
It has been pretty warm and a bit humid up here in the mountains this last week, but the air is changing again and it is said that there will be an Autumn Chill in the air……yipee!

Cute hat! I’ve not yet been to Fryeburg Fair. It’s “only” a 4 1/2 hour ride for me. Hmmmm….

I am reminded by your previous post regarding childhood fingerpainting, about my own young creations. In 8th grade we were supposed to be painting a picture but all I would make were circles of blended colour on page after page. My teacher half heartedly tried to get me to do a “picture” but I would not be dissuaded.
I really enjoy your blog BTW. How are the former puppies?

Do you have a shop? My husband and I are coming to NH for leaf peeping in October. We’re staying in Hancock (near Keene) and while we can’t dedicate the whole vacation to yarn, I might be able to fit a sidebar or two, especially if it is accompanied by brilliant scenery. I especially admire your autumn leaves colorways.
