Dragonfly

Fall is definitely in the air, at least according to the morning temperatures. We've been enjoying some early morning time on the deck because of this. The deck really is most pleasant in spring and fall, before the heat and humidity of summer in SC set in.

Here's a photo of a dragonfly waiting for the morning sun to warm its wings enough for flying.



The latest issue of Spin Off magazine features handspun Baby Surprise Jackets. I have some beautiful purple yarn that daughter spun a few years ago, and we've been wondering what to make with it. I think there is enough to make a BSJ and will try that sometime this weekend. It would be nice to have a little jacket that perhaps one day she can tell her child, "I spun the yarn for this, and your Grandma knitted this sweater." Of course, I hope "one day" is still very far in the future--maybe 10-15 years from now! I'll check the stash for the yarn and share a photo of it later.
