Fall Is In The Air

As much as I hate to move past my Harlot post, I must tell you that I'm finally feeling the Fall sweater urge. I checked out a copy of A Treasury of Rowan Knits yesterday and fell in love with at least two patterns--one for me and one for The Boy. Plus I got two yarn catalogs in the mail yesterday and, well, I just got the itch to embrace the changing weather and start on my family's first sweaters. I've got to get some of these socks off the needles first, though. Who am I kidding? Y'all know I'm going to cast on for something today. *grin*
I am also going to post a contest in the next few days 'cause I found a great goodie on the cheap. . . .

P.S. For all of you with kiddos out there, today's Higglytown Heroes episode was about Kip's grandmother trying to knit them the longest scarf in Higglytown. The dilemma? She ran out of yarn. The hero? The sheep shearer, of course! (They did mention the spinners who make the wool into yarn.) The shearer had an Aussie accent, btw. *grin*
