The End of Summer Sunflowers

Ok....so I saw a beautiful sight that reminded me summer is coming to an end.  I was fortunate enough to see Darlene's sunflowers, which are trees...yes, that's it trees.  Stalks...jack-and-the-bean stalks...8 feet tall?.....really tall.  And gorgeous!!!!!!

NOTE:  The fence is a good 3-4 feet taller than I am...so I could easily stand under the drooping heads.  Easily!

Friday Night Market

Ok....so last Friday I tried out the Friday Night Market at the Nashville Farmers Market.  The yarn bus was there along with many food trucks, music and so many farm vendors. Also, the indoor restaurants were open.  Many people checking in out, much knitting going on and good food.  Check it out.  The next Friday Night Market is September 19th from 5-8.  Not sure about October but check out their website or facebook page for lots of information and details.

Mink Stripes


Ok....so I just couldn't get a picture of this I liked, but thought I'd go ahead and share anyway.  Simple...do whatever I felt like in garter stitch alternating mink with a mohair/silk blend.  So soft and luscious...
