Apples & Honey

Visited Honey Hill Orchard on Sunday. The shop is in a garage. There were many bags of apples, containers of honey, apple cider, donuts, caramel apple pie, and apple fritters among many other items. It smelled wonderful in there.

There were a few Cheese Days booths featuring many, many colorful Native American crafts and CDs for sale. The man below had just finished playing a wind instrument along with a CD when I took his pic.

Photo from my August 30th yard & porch sale of me and my special friend/#1 customer Kathy holding up the "Happiness" blanket which will be up for sale again this weekend. I think if I don't sell it on Saturday or when I host my first crochet boutique next month, I'll donate it to a nursing home as a cheery lap blanket.

These were going to be washcloths that I was making to use up the skein of soft yarn that they were made of, but Kathy purchased them for her elder daughter who will most likely use them as doilies. You can left-click for a closeup of the shell edging that I did for the first time on them.

Also up for sale will be this set of single crochet coasters and a mat made from cotton yarn in a variegated Peaches & Creme shade called "Lemonade."

Today I will continue crocheting fall-related decorations that I will have available at the Saturday sale. Right now the orange and Soft White pumpkins of various sizes exist as retangles. I'll be crocheting my first apple soon. I'm thinking that I'll use Caron Simply Soft "Autumn Red" and also "Limelight" to make a green one. I'll be sure to share pics.
