Pumpkin Sunrise

Weekends are for memory making,  relaxing and enjoying quiet moments of our days.   If you would like, please share your weekend moments  in the comment section with a link to your blog. This weekend I traveled to London, Ontario to visit my husband's parents.  The weekend was jammed packed with activities.  We managed to spend a bit of time in the downtown area.  While walking I saw this fabulous artwork that begged to be photoed. And that is the ONLY photo of the weekend :)  I find wall art on this grand scale amazing.  I cannot even begin to imagine the planning, the scaffolding and the amount of paint that goes into these creations. My weekend contained: -seeing the trees in PA, NY and ONT in the beginning leaf color changes -hours of knitting, car knitting and talking knitting. -seeing my breath while taking a walk because the air was chilly -missing my dog every time I saw someone walking their dog -getting through the border going up and coming ho

Yesterday I posted about my hitofude cardigan , I think I'm going through cardigan knitting withdrawal...As I type this post, I'm wearing it and smiling with sheer joy!  All knitting should be this joyful.  Anyways, I started a Christmas project!  I'm knitting a grey loop cowl , but following the pattern quite loosely.  The yarn is dream in color smooshy  that has been in my stash for a while.  This is perfect tv knitting. My reading is the same, The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert.  Overall I do like the novel but as you know I read at night and sometimes I'm tired and  -poof- I'm asleep.  I think I need to read this during the day so I get engrossed and stay awake. What are you reading and knitting this week? Joining Ginny and Frontier Dreams
