    So beautiful! I tried commenting on yesterday's post but through my phone since I wasn't at a computer all day. The phone doesn't like commenting on blogs though. I love your table! We have a few pieces of furniture that I don't think I'll ever be able to get rid of for the same reasons. Once memories become attached the piece of furniture is a part of the family!

    I'm seeing those guys everywhere too right now. They never sit still long enough for me to snap a photo, though. Have a great weekend, Karen!

    I spent most of a day earlier in the week trying to photograph butterflies, and as you can see there are no butterfly photos on my blog. Beautiful!

    Exquisite. I wonder what the butterfly would be thinking if she knew that her photo had been taken and people were looking at her in admiration? All love, Katie xxx

Weekends

My weekend happily contained: -wearing the above woolens all at the same time without being hot -so many walks and taking in the changing leaves. -a leaf shower on Saturday-the wind swirled the leaves off the trees up in the air to float down -changing screen savers to autumn themes! -a craft fair where my husband and I say "we could make that", but we don't. -french fries at the craft fair -scrambled eggs and toast for dinner because we were lazy. -football season has descended in my house. he was in the front room watching whatever is on today -I sat in the family room and watched A Tree Grows in Brooklyn .   Now I want to read it again. -Oh!

Knitting News

When I first started the hat I thought it would be too small, now I wonder if it will be too big. Gah. I will find out soon I guess. I wish the photo about showed how beautiful the colors are in real life, you'll have to trust me on this! Below is my next knitting project, the habitation throw . I will definitely use the pink and gray, I'm still not sure about that purple, I might have a look-see in my stash and do another ponder about that color. I chose this pattern because I can use up some of my stash and I adore Helen Stewart's patterns. What are you working on this week? Also: I will probably not be posting this Friday and the following Monday because of my family visiting. I hope to be back next Wednesday (unless I change my mind).
