This is a learning progress! I knew that knitting through front or back loop matters & also which way around the loop is on needles & purl with yarn in front or back gives a different output.

This pattern puts them into practice... After several attempts I think I've got it? Maybe... #knitting 🧶

These are the last tomatoes for this season, I picked them two weeks ago just before the frost, when they were still green 💚🍅

Although they may not be a happy addition to your household, dragons make great subjects for needlework. See more at emmasworkbasket.blogspot.com

With so many leaves on the forest floor, it must have been one of my loudest walks ever 😅

At least it kept the bears away 🐻

Shout out to the passerby who stopped and thanked traffic so an elderly person walking with difficulty could take their time to cross the street safely 🫶

We celebrated Samhain last night around a bonfire, sharing food & drinks with friends, neighbours & those who passed away.

I hope the spirits are happy ✨

Earlier I'd prepared two posts, but then we went on a walk and now I think these #autumn photos are way better for happiness 🤍🍂🏔️

#SewAndTell Scary... Well, altering this very expensive dress comes to mind. I was asked to shorten the hem and add loops, so it can be worn as a long, short, or high-low dress.

So I cleared my table... took away all distractions... and started. Mindfulness indeed 😅

This autumn, please consider leaving dead plants in your garden rather than 'tidying' them up. Over the winter they will provide sheltered spots for hibernating ladybirds and lots of other creatures 🐞
