I look forward to fall so much with that wonderful change in seasons. We've been spending as much time as possible on the back patio knitting and as the weather cools, it's hard to think about not being able to have our knit afternoons and nights. Since sweater weather is here, let's take advantage of our remaining outdoor knitting opportunities.

Is it sweater weather yet? Maybe not quite but it is time to start knitting them! Connie wanted a year round sweater and I think this one hits it out of the ball park!

I can't believe that it is almost September and that summer is winding down! I just finished another summer tee...Are you still knitting for summer or are you knitting for sweater weather?

This has been a wonderful summer this year for finished summer tees and knit-alongs! Everyone has been inspiring each other to knit, knit, knit and even though we haven't been able to knit together in person, we have been knitting together apart!

It has been strange not planning any time away...Stranger still that I haven't seen any of my kids or grandchildren since Christmas and yet here we are in the middle of August already! I have been using my time knitting of course especially the summer tees that have been so popular!

This has definitely been the hottest summer...Do you have summer knits on your needles or have you started your cool weather fall knitting? Are you making shawls or summer tees?

Here we are still in the midst of the pandemic and it is the August long weekend! Does it feel like it is going to be a long weekend for you? For me it doesn't since I work from home and you really can't go anywhere, holidays and long weekends all feel the same.

Are you loving the summer so far despite this new normal? I admit to spending most of my days knitting especially since we have been staying home and have no plans to travel!

Too hot to be outdoors for too long with the recent humidity but it has been the perfect excuse to knit indoors! Summer makes using linen, cottons or fingering weight yarns are cooler to work with!

Summer has definitely come and boy it has been hot! Today's rain has cooled it down outside but it is still stay inside and knit or make weather!

My goodness but it has been hot out there! Great time to sit and knit in the coolness of home or as I did in the shade of our gazebo. I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful Canada Day!

I have been enjoying myself knitting while staying home but I still haven't been able to finish any of my WIPS except my newest one. I really want to start my Soundtrack on August 1st for Olive Knits 4 Day KAL. I also have so many favorites saved on Ravelry and Pinterest that I have a hard time deciding what to cast on next! What are on your list?

We had another wonderful but hot week to knit and make and I do admit to taking advantage of it! It was also a week where many of you returned to work with the stress of another new normal.

I tend to spend a lot of time in front of my computer...this week I tried my best to sit outside and knit instead alternating from the front of the house and the back to catch that shade! Despite the humidity, I found there was usually enough of a breeze that it was great to be out.
