Happy Halloween!

My Pumpkin Raffa's Pumpkin

Halloween is my favorite holiday! My hubby and I carved our pumpkins last night. His is the better one on the right. I will look forward to all the cute kids coming around getting candy tonight. Although, we usually don’t get very many since our apartment is situated in the back of the complex.

In knitting news, here is the back of Klaralund already:

Klaralund back

I started it yesterday morning and had a hard time putting it down. I am totally mesmerized with this yarn! It’s incredable! I love to see how the colors are going to appear as they are knitted up. It’s funny, because Melissaj mentioned that she is also knitting Klaralund right now using the same colorway, but mine came out differently. I think that is so cool…No two sweaters knitted with this yarn look exactly alike. I’m also noticing that each skien is different, too. I used about 1.5 skiens on the back. The first had this gorgeous blue, but no green. However, the second had the really pretty green that you see. Anyway, I am loving working with silk garden. I love it so much that I just ordered some more on e-bay in colorway 88. I think I’m planning on knitting Karlsro from Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton Book 1. I also am trying to order (but am having some issues) some Noro Kochoran in colorway 36. I ordered 3 skiens to knit Gesta from CTH Book 2. So, as you can see, I am going through a little Noro obsession right now. Probably spending WAY too much money, too.

    Klaralund looks great. I love the colors. Looking forward to seeing her done.
    I can’t believe you both carved out those pumpkins. They are awesome. It looks like it would be very hard to do! :smile:
