Deck knitting

The cool breezes were a delight this afternoon as we chatted and knitted.

Jan A. brought us a few FO's the first being her Exordium Shawl made with sock weight yarns. She did a lovely job and her yarn colors coordinate so well.

She also completed three hats, a cowl, and a scarf. It's quite a nice collection which is sure to warm the hearts and bodies of their recipients.

Dorah decided she might actually wear her completed Bella Shawl since the vibrant colors will go with almost anything and look great with jeans.

Janna finished one Easy scarf and cast right on to start another. The colors look appropriate for the upcoming Halloween season too!

I'm still working on my Totally Biased inspired cowl using two silk blend yarns from the stash.

Barbara K. has knitted a good chunk of her Mistake Stitch Scarf which makes a thick, cushy fabric.

Maureen keeps plugging away on her cowl using a bulky weight yarn of many colors.

And Barbara B. is very near the end of her baby blanket of the softest cotton yarn.

Someone is getting courageous and venturing out to visit the Chicks.

He actually positioned himself under Barbara K.'s chair for most of the last hour of our meeting. 

Maybe he thinks someone will feed him!😃

I love this time of year when all the fiber festivals seem to announce the cooler weather is approaching.

This weekend September 24 and 25 is the annual Adirondack Fiber Festival which is held at the Washington County Fairgrounds in Greenwich, NY.  It's not as big as the NY Sheep and Wool held at Rhinebeck, NY each October but is just as nice IMHO. And if you turn left as you reach Route 29 to leave, you can stop for a delicious ice cream treat at the Ice Cream Man! I never miss a chance when I'm in the area. Maybe I'll see you there. In the meantime, keep those needles clicking!
