autumn is here. i put flannel sheets on the bed yesterday, and pulled out my flannel jammies today, and put my short sleeves and capris away for the duration. right now its cool (about 50ish deg) and raining. i love the fall, but it just means winter is on it's way.
while i finished my afghan for Afghans, i had ollie sleeping next to me on the couch. he snored. a cool rainy day seemed the perfect day to finish the afghan. i made it for Marolyn for her birthday present. she's always telling me she doesn't need anymore "stuff", so for her birthday, i thought instead of buying her more "stuff", i'd do something for charity. and i like to knit, and "afghans for Afghans" needed hand knit baby blankets for the newborns in their hospital in Kabul. a match made in knitting heaven, if you ask me. i get a warm fuzzy shiver whenever i think of some poor woman who doesn't have a single personal possession who will be thrilled to wrap her newborn in my warm wool baby blanket. i hope they'll be ok.
