I have been busy the past couple of evenings working on a scrappy scarf. Just garter stitch with a lot of changing of colors. So far I am liking it a lot!! There is just a lot of ends to be woven in!! But I must admit I don't mind that at all...I love to see the little clump of pieces of yarn that I clip off. Why this makes me happy, I don't know, but it does. And mixing colors that you would never think would go together is exciting. For some reason it works! It's all fibery and textury! I will have more to come on this coming soon. It is close to being done!
I thought it would be fun to share some more yarni-yumminess on this posting! Unfortunately, I didn't get to take many pictures at SAFF, I was too busy trying to juggle my purse and my yarn purchases. LOL!! But I did get a couple pictures in.
I met so many fellow Raveler's at SAFF! Everyone that I met was so nice, I instantly loved them...how could you not...we all had the same thing in common. An addiction for yarn!
During my ride home from SAFF I was able to finish up my crocheted ripple scarf. This is the one that I used sock yarn in. And I am so pleased with how it turned out. This is one of those patterns that I will keep in my library and use several times!
The North Carolina Mountains were gorgeous with that vibrant fall color and that crisp cool air! Loved every bit of it. And even though I would love to still be in the mountains, the color here at home is just as pretty! Let me share!!!

This caught my eye on someone else's blog because tomorrow morning I am taking crocheting for the very first time. It is being offered on our Learning In Retirement Program from the University here. It lasts just four weeks I think, one day a week. I am to bring some 4 ply yarn and a G hook. After reading your blog I wonder if I will take to it like you have. My mom used to knit and crochet a lot but I never have. And my hands don't work too well. You see I already have my excuses ready if I am not any good at it.:)
You have been busy,,,and I love the fall pictures...thanks for sharing with us...have a great weekend..
