... at least if you are not a Barbie.

One more sleep and then it's off to Rhinebeck in the morning. If you see me there I will be wearing these



or these



depending on the weather.

I am also likely to be found with Norma and/or Sandy.

Gotta pack. Bye!

For those who don't get the title, perhaps because you are too young to remember Donovan's top-40 single from July 1967, watch this so you can sing along. But I'm warning you, it has a tendency to get stuck in your head.

So. Remember these mittens from back in March?



Well, a couple of months later the ordered yarn (for the missing mitten) arrived, but it was Spring by then and so the mitten didn't get knit, but I did write the pattern down since I figured it would probably not get knit until Fall. And here we are and now it is Fall, and so I printed out the pattern and knit a mitten.

First there is a mitten...

So it has been two years today since I began blogging. The archives now include all my old Blogger entries, right back to the very first one.

Blogging has gone a long way to making me a less isolated knitter. I now have real friends and virtual friends that I never imagined I would have. I hope to meet many of you at Rhinebeck in only 16 more sleeps (!). Thanks for visiting and I hope you keep coming back.

I wish I had a photo of recent knitting progress, or recent anything, but I don't. So I will leave you with an almost seasonal picture of pumpkin pi.
