Gift Crafting Underway

(The picture is the last of the season's flowers. Usually these are the last in August but fall just arrived here.)

Some serious crafting has been happening here at the littlepeep household. Halloween costume just needs some finishing touches. As usual I have gone overboard on the costume. I think in hindsight it would have looked the same if I had simplified it. And of course, in the true nature of two-year-olds he no longer wants to be a bird but would rather be a witch. I knew I should have bought a back up costume. Here's hoping I will be able to show the costume on the LM.


I have been canning the rest of the season's yumminess. Not exactly crafty but time consuming.



3 knitting projects are off the needles, seamed and soaked. They are drying and blocking now. Am I the only one amazed that when you wash the finished knit item that they can really be filthy? Is it my hands that are that dirty or is it the wool?


Next up on the needles Thuja socks from knitty.com in Duets Nob Hill.
