Wednesday WIPs

 

None of my WIPs are very interesting this week so how about taking a look at the fall sweaters I have in my bathtub getting their annual soak. They've been cooped up all summer and it's time to get them out, sort of. It's been in the 70's here again this week. Boooo....not exactly sweater weather yet but I'll be ready if it ever gets here. 




The orange one is White Pine by Amy Christoffers. Once upon a time it was my Rhinebeck sweater. The green one is Mosi by Helene Magnusson. It was inspired by Daughter's trip to Iceland. The last one is Festive Doodle by Caitlin Hunter. This was a pandemic KAL that had me scrambling for yarn at a time when everyone and their brother was knitting. 





We could really see the difference in the trees as we went north last week but in spite of the warm temps down here it is still very much fall. I always look forward to when the Beech trees turn every year because they burst into golden flame and give everything a glow. I'm not rushing winter, but it would be nice to get to put on one of those sweaters before it's time to get out the coats.

    Last week there was snow in our forecast for tomorrow but it's gone now. I still haven't worn a sweater or coat, just my sundresses, but I think that will be changing this coming week as we're supposed to be in the teens. As long as it's been warm so long, I wish it had held on until after Thanksgiving and Alex & family's visit. We want to go to the zoo and a few other places too.
    Your sweaters are beautiful. I sure wish I had the guts to try all of those colors together!
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    That beech tree is lovely and so are your sweaters. I am also hoping for some fall-like temps., but I'm even more excited about the prospect of some real rain starting tonight!

    Those sweaters are gorgeous! We had some rain last night and more expected tonight. I also saw that we could possibly (I doubt it) have a few flurries on Friday!

    It must be very warm where you are if you are not wearing jumpers yet, we have had them on for months, in fact thinking about it we didn't really take them off for summer!
