You finished your cardi already! Go you! I want to see a modelled photo, though, ok?

And those cans make me hungry…

what a lovely work table you have. the wild flowers are inspiring. and how nice to knit a few new sweaters for fall.

Everything looks lovely! I’m intrigued by the yellow stuff in the jars. Applesauce? Yellow tomato sauce?

So did you get the blue out of the yarn for Rogue?

The cardi looks adorable, though I second Francesca I want to see a modeled photo!!!

I love these photos! The wildflowers are amazing! And the jars- yummers!

ahh – what a perfect spread on that old table! It’s like a life-raft, everything you need for survival right there! And yes, I’ve got to see how the sweater looks on! Great work!

The sweaters are both gorgeous – what patterns are they?

I always love a good photo of flowers :)

can’t believe you have that cardigan finished already. looking forward to seeing it modeled.

Yummy! All of it. See – THIS is the hardest part of being out of the country during the height of me FAVORITE SEASON!!!
I am missing FALL HARVEST!! Canning! Knitting! Blustery nights and warm days!

Hmph. Ok – SO I’m paying the bills to enable the canning and knitting and enjoying of blustery days — but can’t a girl just want it all NOW?
Cheers from China!

Yay! I always want to can and I never get around to it. Maybe this fall? Can’t wait to see modeled photos.
