Ooooh I love the autumn landscape!! I had such a terrific drive last weekend. The low evening sun just lit up the west facing banks of Blackstrap Lake.
I met a friend for lunch in Regina. We spent some time visiting in Golden Willow Natural Fibres. I had never been in there before. I had coffee with Sharon, the owner. Gosh - I love her store. I love what I purchased too! The autumn countryside inspired these choices:
And up in the top left corner of the last photo is my new favorite tool. It's a Niddy Noddy! hehe That name cracks me up every time. It's used for winding skeins. : )
That's all for now folks. : ) Have a lovely Thanksgiving Weekend, time to count our blessings. Enjoy the food, friends/family, and the weather!
