Seasonal September

Ahhhh, Fall! There's just something about it. Cooler temps seem to make the sun shine brighter, and shorter days urge me to squeeze all the daytime fun in that I can. They also make me stop to appreciate the perfect, golden glow on even the weeds just before the sunset

Later starts and earlier finishes make it easy to find a moment to show off recent knits for upcoming seasons and holidays, like this fall garland I'm working on for my office. 

I think there will be a Frankenstein monster, and a little green apple. I really enjoyed carefully choosing yarn for this project...then noticing those same colors in nature on last night's walk! 

I'm also enjoying a shifting perspective on all the things in my life, which seems to happen bit-by-bit with each birthday. How is it September so soon, the season of football, apples and pumpkins? 

57 certainly seems to solidly settle into the autumnal zone of this lifetime... So, I'm settling in to enjoy it, and express it, in knitting...

...and maybe some baking later today, since a co-worker shared the bounty of his apple trees this week! (Thanks Adam!)

I hope you are having a good Saturday and finding things to treasure in your heart, whatever season of life you're in! 

Thanks for stopping by, and Knit in Good Health! 

PS - There's still some summer fun to be had...
