Images of autumn

I don't have much presentable knitting to show you. It's not that I haven't been knitting, it's just that it's all in different stages of unfinishedness and as such extremely resistant to photographing. Instead, I first give you some photos completely unrelated to knitting and then some fresh photos of old projects :) But please stay tuned, some new knitting is sure to follow, I only have half a sleeve to finish a cardigan :)


I really love autumn. Even with all the rain, and the cold, and this terrible wind that we have here, and the dreariness and everything. It has a certain charm, a certain poetic aura about it that gets me every year. And the colours, ah, the colours...


This year the beginning of October was so warm that you could  sit in the park in short sleeves.




But soon enough the windbreaks were up at the beach 




and the playgrounds were deserted.








And then finally it was cold enough to put on the February Lady Sweater I finished back in July (wool+alpaca at 40 degrees!), pack my camera and a willing photographer and head off for the river bank.




I paired it with two more projects that never had proper photos of them taken either: Travelling Woman shawl and Drops' 98-55 Bag with cable pattern in Eskimo




Aren't I lucky that autumn colours are in vogue at the moment? I had put on a pair of  Jaywalkers in matching colours too but we forgot to photograph them :(

  2. Jako lijepo ti stoji i model i boja. Što se pak pletenih torbi tiče, ne znam, imam nekako podijeljene osjećaje prema njima, dopadaju mi se, ali ih s druge strane smatram nepraktičnima i osjetljivima za svakodnevnu upotrebu, tako da svaki put odustanem kada mi padne na pamet ideja da pletem torbu.
    Čak i u ovu subotu bila sam lagano obučena, kod nas toplo vrijeme još uvijek nije prošlo, daleko sam od oblačenja u slojevima ili u vunu. Pravo je prokletstvo kada voliš plesti baš vunu, a živiš u klimi gdje ti maksimalno 3 mjeseca godišnje treba nešto toplija garderoba.

  3. Obožavam jesen - boje, kišu, hlad, lokve iz kojih stalno vadim djecu... :) February L.S. je odličan - super ti stoji. Kao što je Romatales napisala - dvoumim se kad su u ptianju pletene torbe, pa tako, nemam ni jednu. Ali sigurno ču naiči na model, zbog kojeg se predomislim. Sam treba još malo vremena da prodje ;)

  8. Lijepe slike jeseni. Meni je pretoplo, samo čekam kad će više zahladiti, da nosim svoje pletene uratke.
    Prekrasna boja za February Lady.
