Lacey and Grey

I had huge plans of being organised in the gift giving department this year.  It may have helped if I was on top of things at the start of the year.

In October I gifted my Mum a ball of yarn for her birthday. She unwrapped it and gave it back to me for it to be knitted up (tell me that I am not the only knitter that has done this?)

So, the yarn has finally been knitted into a beanie for her.  I have another ball of this luscious yarn that will become a cowl for her. The yarn is soft and cuddly and I think that my neck and head are in need of a little of this as well.

It has finally cooled down here.  We have been very lucky to have a beautiful Autumn and it almost feels like we have skipped a season (which is a little sad, Autumn would have to be my favourite season, especially when we have a southern posting)

I have huge plans for winter and covering my family in knits.  I know that I am dreaming and that I will not get half of it done. But I am going to try and have at least on wearable item and one accessory each.

Are your needles and hook busy preparing for winter?
What is your favourite season?
