Signs That Fall Is Really Coming

 November 1st here signals Fall Back on the clocks and for me, not a big problem, since I'm retired.  I did appreciate the sun shining a bit earlier today and up until right now, it has been.  Down side, yes, it will be going down shortly, but I'm ok with that.

Today, even though it was a chilly 44 degrees out on the porch this morning, the sun and no wind made it quite pleasant for a bit of knitting.  And I had mitts to keep the hands warm, as part of my Wear Your Knits November aka puttinontheknitz.

Yesterday, it was quite gloomy and a bit of a chill, so I was happy to throw on some socks for the first day of November.


Since it was so gloomy yesterday, I spent it putting away my Halloween Decor and bringing the Fall decor.  (But, for some reason, I can't find the other tub of Thanksgiving Decor, hmmm, I'll tackle that tomorrow again.)

I, also, blocked the Amber Sweater that I have been working on most of the Summer and before I was heavy into my Norway knitting.  It is short sleeved, but, I should be able to wear in a couple of more times, once to knitting, the other for a podcast next week, before putting it away for lots of Spring wearing.


While I was at it, I tossed in the Bermy Basic 28 for a nice soak,  a transitional sweater for me, that I have worn a lot since getting back from Norway.  Now, it will be nice and clean for next Spring.


Thats about it for the first couple of days of November.  Finally, a sign that Fall really is going to happen, is my front burning bushes, they are beginning to lose their green, a sure sign.


Have a good start to your November and pull out those knits!
