FALL, PUMPKINS, KNITTING





RIP-gauge correct-wrong size.....grrr!



 

New to me, dehydrating tomatoes-then grinding them into a powder. remix with water when needing tome paste/sause.













 The latter half of September and first half of October have been the 30 days of viruses here at the Little House. No, not COVID-thank goodness, just re-entry into the world viruses. After having been inside keeping people not in our bubble away, going out (even though wearing a mask), seems my immune system forgot how to fend off little annoying viruses. It’s been a long frustrating month, but I am on the mend now! Thank you science for antibiotics! It is time to knock out this low grade sinus infection once and for all. Today is the first day I feel energy returning, like I may want to actually do something today, walk, bake, sew, who knows, the sky is the limit. Unfortunately, my granddaughter’s classroom has a COVID out break, so she is in remote learning now! My county is again on a mandatory mask wearing in all buildings again. When is America going to get it together and do what is needed to end this pandemic? 


I have been knitting with some finish wins and a sad RIP sweater that I am now recasting on after having to set it aside in a time out. The Felix Sweater above is a 'new' cast on using Nutiden Yarn from Sweden. This yarn is unspun and breaks easily but easy to put back together. I love the color, a dark maroon with lots of other colors blended in the mix. 

Hoping for a long Fall season with lots of walks, knitting, good health and family time.
