Falling into September

Helloooo, September! When did you get here? Oh. Seven days ago, that's right. I don't know how you surprise me every stinkin' year! I mean, one minute I'm looking for small things to knit

and visiting THE amusement park...because, yanno, summer!

60-seconds later (or so it seemed, at least), I'm finishing the first of the fall, birthday sweaters! (October's is just half-a-sleeve from finished, by the way!)

The shawl that was stifling in my lap last week 

is suddenly welcome in my wardrobe...

Still needs blocked, but looking good!

...and late-summer walks in the park

have given way to that familiar itch to change up kitchen decor! 

Since I'm refreshing the kitchen, it's as good a time as any to add a new family photo over the sofa, too...and there we have it! 

Fall and all of the changes it tends to bring are here. Surprise! I may just have to bake cookies today to celebrate! 

How are you marking the passage of time and seasons in your neck o' th' woods? Are you planning any fun knits, or other crafts? I know you're busy, but I'd love to hear about it in the comments! 

Thanks for stopping by, and Knit in Good Health! 

A better look at that pic over the couch! 

And all the grandkids!
