This is the one that time forgot.  I knitted it at the very end of winter last year.  Swiftly took a few photos and put it away in the wardrobe for this year.
With the sudden change of weather and winter arriving with frosty mornings I climbed to the top of the wardrobes to see what treasures had been tossed up there. 
This has been on a constant cycle of wear, wash, dry and wear of recent weeks.
I love the pattern and love the cropped look and definitely think that there needs to be another one on the needles for me soon as this one is getting so much wear.  Next time I will knit it a little longer.  I love the cropped look of this one (and Suzanne and Trinity would approve) but it doesn't do much for keeping the lower back and kidneys warm and this yarn (Patons, Wilderness - which I've been told by my local yarn store that they think that it is now discontinued) is too thick to wear with a jacket.

My Creative Space

I have been knitting here and there this week.  Tim is still recovering from Hip Reconstruction surgery.  At home I am doing all the normal things that I do + putting on some one's socks and shoes.  I think they call it love.
The weather has turned cool and both the kids have grown out of every single knitted item that they own.  Being the only knitter in the family means that I am going to be busy (and I should have started long before this, when will I learn?)

The knitting has been coming everywhere with me. Dancing and Swimming, to waiting in the park soaking up the last sun that Autumn had to offer us last week while I waited for Kinder to conclude.
I can not believe that winter is only two weeks away.  I am no where near prepared. 
Have your hands been busy?
