Can you believe that it is almost the middle of August? September is coming up fast and there are 19 weeks until Christmas...Are you thinking about fall projects yet or have you already cast on your gift knitting?

It has been a hot and humid summer so far and I have not ventured outside much even though I have a wonderful gazebo to sit in! The only time I have been spending outdoors is during my weekly spinning group nights!

Can you believe it? It is almost the end of July and this is the August 1 Civic Holiday long weekend! Are you planning a mini getaway or are you staying put?

Oh but it has been really hot outside! We really shouldn't complain though because it could be hotter or there could be no air conditioning! I am truly thankful that most of us have the luxury of being able to stay inside and cool.

How are you enjoying your summer so far? Are you enjoying car rides, trips to visit family, walks under clear blue skies and knitting outdoors in the sunshine?

I love to knit all year round especially summer sweaters! Are you a summer knitter or maker of summer sweaters or do you prefer smaller projects like socks or a shawl?

Enjoy the moments this Canada Day weekend! It is hot, humid and it looks like it might storm...Were you out and about or did you stay inside where it was cool and knitting like me?

Summer is officially here! Summer makes using cottons, cotton blends and linens or fingering weight yarns more enjoyable to work with for our summer knits and to of course, to wear!

It is definitely feeling like summer outside. Some of us don't knit much in the summer but I can't say that I ever put my needles down...I knit and make year round and I hope you do too!

Tomorrow is our fourth annual Sue2Knits Knit in Public Day! Go Public, Go Social...Go Knitting in Public Yeah! From 10 until 4 pm. So far it looks like we will have a great day so I look forward to seeing you! Bring yourself, your knitting, crochet, weave or yarnie project and join in some socializing and fibre fun with us!

I am not sure whether we are in for a scorching hot weather this weekend or whether we get a mixed bag but I am going to try to sit and knit out in the gazebo!

Last week's crazy weather was not at all what I expected! Let's hope we have a great weekend ahead of us because I want to be able to sit back, relax and knit preferably out on my deck!

It is the Friday before the long weekend and it is unbelievably hot outside and a little overcast. Although it is supposed to get a little cooler over the next few days, it is still going to feel hot! If you are lucky enough to have a pool, have you opened it yet so you can cool off? We don't but I do have the gazebo on our deck so I think I will sit, relax and knit if I get the chance.

Wow! I can't believe how warm it has been outside! My deck has still been a little too breezy to sit out and knit comfortably though without everything blowing. Have you been knitting outside?
