Topic of the Week 3

TOPIC OF THE WEEK
Autumn has now officially begun here in the States!! What is your favorite thing about Autumn/Fall? Why?

Well the heat dies down and althought mid-day is warmer, the mornings and evenings are cool and crsip. I also like flannel sheets and jammies, sweater and socks. We have fires and football!

Fingerless Gloves

No fingers, but I thumb. My first thumb gusset. This is the first glove I did and the second one came out better. I am contemplating ripping out the first thumb and redoing it.....

This is Artyarns Supermerino color 123.

TOPIC OF THE WEEK 2

When you knit or crochet dishclothes, washclothes or face clothes, what do you use? What size needle or hook? Wood? what type? Metal? Plastic? A specific Brand? Why do you love that needle or hook so much? Is there one you are dying to try? Is there a particular yarn you love and use all the time for clothes? What is so special about it?

I use my Bryspun #7 straights. They have a great point to pick up cotton yarn with. I love Sugar and Cream and Peaches and Cream and I have a ton of it! Peaches and Cream has better colorways I feel so I guess that would be my fav!

Went to the Stitch and Pitch yesterday and here's my awesome goodie!

TOPIC OF THE WEEK 1

Topic
Now that in some geographic locations the weather is starting to turn cooler, do you change the type of yarn(s) you knit/crochet with? If so, what do you now knit/crochet with instead and why? If not, why do you not switch and what do you knit/crochet with?

Living in California, we don't get the drastic change in the seasons but I tend to knit more with wool and things that make you want to sit by the fire and knit. I just brought out a sweater I had OTN as it was too hot to lay across my lap. I knitted socks this summer and now I get to wear them!
