Friday, October 1, 2021, Issue 217: Fall is here and sweater weather!
Yes! We are OPEN! I had surgery 2 weeks ago and while I am not supposed to run up and down the stairs and still have trouble bending and reaching...we are OPEN! Kathy (chantrykathy) has been on hand three days a week so that I can sit and recover. Thank you everyone for your support, kind words, prayers and encouragement to also take it easy!

It is officially fall with our evenings coming sooner and weather that has not made up its mind yet and too wet! Perfect weather to stay in and knit or make something though! What do you have on your needles?

Friday, September 10, 2021, Issue 215: Is it sweater weather?
I always look forward to fall with our colourful change in seasons. I'd like to spend as much time as possible on the back patio knitting but I hate the bees and wasps! It's hard to think about not being able to have our knit afternoons and nights because I have too self isolate for the week before my surgery. Since sweater weather is here, let's take advantage of our remaining outdoor knitting opportunities and enjoy it!

Is it sweater weather yet? Maybe not quite but it is time to start knitting them even if I still have a summer sweater still on my needles! What is on your needles? Many new patterns have been released recently...

I can't believe that it is almost September and that summer is winding down! Are you anticipating fall-ish, cooler weather? Are you still knitting for summer-ish or are you knitting for sweater-ish weather?

At this time last year, we had a wonderful summer of finished summer tees and knit-alongs! We were inspiring each other to knit, knit, knit and even though we couldn't knit together in person, we knit together apart! In the last couple of weeks, we have finally been able to knit together again and it is so good to see everyone so happy to enjoy those moments together with fun and laughter.

It is almost the middle of August! September is right around the corner and there are 19 weeks until Christmas...Are you thinking about fall projects yet or have you cast on your gift knitting?

Are you enjoying your summer so far? I am even though it has been hot, humid and just bit more wet than I like! It definitely makes it easy to sit back, relax and knit, knit, knit or make, make, make!

I love summer sweaters! I love wearing them and I love knitting them! Are you a summer knitter or maker of summer sweaters or do you prefer smaller projects like socks or a shawl?

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

We have had scorching hot weather all over the country and while I wouldn't say I'd be wearing a shawl outside but they are handy to have available to throw on in an air conditioned car, grocery shopping or whenever it gets a little chilly!
