Already lots of Christmas stuff out...
Just had to share these pictures...aren't those shoes so sweet???

I just can't wipe this smile off my face♥️
I had decided that this Summer...I would get a few things done, before Christmas was nipping at my toes!!
I have completed 6 Cowls...I have already given one to Erika for her birthday...It was a different stitch that I tried...one stitch in front loop, then one stitch in back loop...I like the way it turned out...
{see pics below}
The small blue one is one row in the front loop, then the next row in the back loop...
Alternating rows...
Also an interesting look....
The other ones, are with all stitches in the back loop only...a nice technique that Linda at White Weathered Hutch {side bar} taught me...I like that it resembles a knitting stitch...
The cowl I made for Pam in the Maritimes was the same stitch...
The picture of the alternating stitch doesn't do it justice...but you can see in the photo below...where Erika is wearing the cowl...I find it looks kinda like a basket weave stitch...
This super soft white one is for Miss V...
She looks so cute in these cowls...♥️
This one, I just started last weekend at the cottage...
So nice and bright!!
Not sure who it is for...
Maybe Moi!!
For all you crocheters out there...
The yarn I used is...
For the grey ones...I used Bernat Premium Worsted 4ply...and I used nearly the whole ball...7oz...The one I gave Erika wraps around twice...the others are not as big..
The Blue and Beige are Red Heart Super Saver...Worsted 4 ply...5oz...
Bought these both at Walmart...
The new project is from the yarn I bought at Michaels...
Hope you are all having a great day...
Rainy and miserable and humid here...
BUT...
I was lucky enough to have lunch at a sweet friends house...
Lots of chitchat...good for the soul♥️
And a delicious offering too!
My son will be joining us for dinner tonight...
Spaghetti..crusty bread...ceasar salad...
Enjoy the rest of your day!!
Cheers! :o)

What a fabulous Fall... 4 day weekend we had at the cottage...
Actually...
Felt more like Summer!!!
Gorgeous sunny skies...warm temps...north wind...fantastic!!
Hope you all had a great weekend too...
Today is kinda cloudy...kinda humid...damp...bit of rain...
Expecting a cold front to bring some rain for tomorrow...
Oh well...Summer can't last forever I guess!!
The leaves are turning too fast...and falling too fast...
Hold on for a while!!
We need to rake and have fun with Miss V in the leaves!!
Thanks so much for all the lovely birthday wishes for Erika...
Much appreciated!
I also see a few new followers...welcome!
hope you come back often...a great bunch here♥️
Enjoy the rest of your day...
Buttermilk soaked...panko crusted Cod for dinner...
Bok Choy...heirloom carrots...green beans...
No carbs tonight!! Way too much to eat on the weekend...hahaha!!
Oh...but I will most likely add a few tomatoes, with cheese and avacado...
Just 'cause I can!! hahahaha!
Have a great day...
Cheers! :o)

My youngest Daughter Erika is celebrating her Birthday today...
We had her here for dinner yesterday...
Miss V was so excited to make her a card and give her a present...
Even if it was a "My Kitty" necklace that I had picked up for her♥️
She was very excited to have her open it!!!
I made her this cowl...along with a few other gifts...
We had a nice dinner and chocolate cake...

When we got home...after picking up Miss V...she wanted to play in Nana's front garden...I have no grass...just plants, and a few stone paths...she loves it out here..."like being in a forest", she said♥️...

Have not made my sauce for such a long time...
Glad to have that on hand...
