Cool weather items

 
Hello Peeps! Finally Fall is in sight!! Yes, exclaimation points !! I am so ready to do stuff and I am practically confined to the house in the heat. I simply cannot stand it and find it difficult to breath in the oppressive humidity. This morning is cool and low humidity. Heaven. Seriously. The other thing I like about Fall is the demand for my finished items. People don't think about blankets until its cold.Same for all cold weather wear. I have been working on hats and blankets all summer long and now I can show them and hopefully sell some, I need more yarn!! The family would scoff at that but I neeed some colors to finish some projects. Let's see what is in the finished files today.
shades of purple, this is 30 inches square


Already gifted but I really like the ombre, this pattern is on my repeat list


Childs size slouch hat

I like using the balloons for photos but I really need a head to show them in their best light. Next item to look for! Enjoy the weather, I hope it stays mild for a while!

I am hoping to habitually increase my posting and using this place as a journal of my creative persuits. I have been knitting hats and blankets, and some crochet as well. I need to put up some photos as well.

Here is a crochet baby blanket I made for Tristyn. These are his father's favorite colors and it was a custom gift. I was looking at a box of baby something and noticed that this colorway was used on several items, like diaper wipes and formula and such. Since I have noticed these same colors and another of burgandy or fuchia as well. Wonder what next years colors will be?
This green and gold scarf has been a favorite of mine for a while. It is so large I could use it (I am plus sized and it is a good proportion for me. I then was playing with some Ideas for breastfeeding moms, and came up with this version of a cover up. It has 2 suspender clips top keep it on even when baby is wiggly, and is pretty enough to wear between feeds.Light weight and pretty. I hope to sell some of these as well.
