Shortly, we're going to brunch with my son and his girlfriend before they leave. I'm hoping to get out to enjoy the fall colors on a walk this afternoon.
This is a scarf that I started Friday night. The yarn is Misti Alpaca--cotton and part silk; I can wear wool socks and mitts but can't wear it near my neck. I bought the yarn when I was in Nova Scotia last summer. It feels so lovely to knit, I may have to call and order some more. I can see I didn't do it justice when I took the picture last night. The turquoises and greens are brighter than it shows.
I've been working in snippets of time putting the finishing touches on the 2 elephants. Here is 1 pictured surrounded by my scrappy blocks. I quite like all the color.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too. My husband and I are having a super quiet day. Not even a turkey roll this year since there isn't anyone around. They are all with friends. Less stress but perhaps too quiet. At least we are getting things done around the house.
I like the little squares with the elephant block!
Oh Holly I agree. These little colorful squares look so much better with the elephant block than the house ones. More balanced and they have a happy, circus feel to them. Very suitable!
