Crimson Tide
Autumnal leaves are sporting scarlet blushes, why shouldn’t I? Knit for winter work wear in Irish Kilcarra:
XO Cardigan from Folk Vests, by Cheryl Oberle. Modified for Os only, as I didn’t want to be a walking Tic-Tac-Toe board.
Sunflower Tam from Knitting Nature, by Nora Gaughan.
missed you. . . . . Like you, we too are hurtling along at break-neck speed. Not so good. The funny thing I’ve realized? I always stop to go look at good knitting, good food, loving thoughts. . . . Hence, if there’s something up at a simple yarn I’m there! Good to see you. LOVE the vest! Lord willing, I will come photograph you in it at at the place along the Potomac. It will look splendid! Those buttons. . . . that turn-down collar. . . . really lovely.

Oh you made me laugh, no a walking Tic-tac-toe would not be good. It’s lovely, the colour is fabulous.
