the days of autumn

Those overly bright, scorch your cornea days of last week have given way to more seasonal temps and drizzle.  The grey days of fall are pushing their way in.  The wetness accentuates color, in ways I prefer.  Not good for drying yarn but for dyeing…. yes!

Tomatoes have ripened on the window sills in the shop.  They do double duty, warming the house while roasting and scenting it with their sweet aroma.

C is back and at work again in the shop.  I’ve had it to myself so much lately it’s hard to share the space.  He’s in production mode.  We want to get enough skein winders boxed and ready to ship so we won’t have too much lag time over the coming holiday season.

More space is on the way.  Not shop space, but… lots of storage.  This is the shot from yesterday’s early morning check it out with Sammy walk.

  1. I see beautiful yarn. And a beautiful cat, too.

  2. The barn is looking great! I wish the rain would stop if just for one day.

    Hmmm…… more of the Falling Leaves sock yarn? It certainly was popular last weekend πŸ˜‰ I made Knitspot sun-dried tomatoes too! Try them on parchment paper- less mess and easier clean up.

    I see lovely yarn and a wonderful place for a nice big tractor and lots of high storage space!

    Looks good to me… and the tomatoes and of course the yarn is yummy too!

  6. I’m looking at tomatoes just before dinner. Yum. The color theme permeates and saturates.
