First Flash of Fall~
I love this time of year…it’s probably my favorite!
Enjoy your week, thinking of toasty fireplaces, crunching leaves under foot, crisp evening air, the scent of apples baking, and those warm knitted goodies we finally get to wear again! 🙂

Howdy, All! 😀
Well…things have been pretty hectic around here the last week or so. We’ve been full in the swing of getting packed and ready to move, finalizing our home purchase, getting the girlies all registered and ready for school, prepping for a garage sale this weekend, completing a new “secret” 😉 project on the looms, baby sitting my great-nephew, and unfortunately…spider hunting.
My hubby was certainly surprised when he went to turn on the shower one morning and this GIANT spidey was looking him in the eye from 6 inches away! This is the biggest specimen so far…we had to show pics comparing him with 2 quarters, because I don’t think anyone would have believed us otherwise. We just couldn’t let him loose around our house for fear that he would somehow make it back inside, so we took him to Fort Borst Park, just up the road from us and deposited him in a nice woodsie area. I think he’ll like his new home…
To get that bit of nastiness off your mind…I thought you’d like a little baby cuteness to start your Friday off right, lol! My little nephew Blake is just a doll…I love his personality! Here’s a pic that proves that knitting looms aren’t just for adults, lol!
…and a sweet little dancin’ video. Here he is with his mama, Brette…he can’t walk, but he can definitely boogie!
Have a great weekend!

We started out looking for the lucky person who would be the 1000’th commenter to the blog, and we found her!
This person is someone who, according to her comments, loves having tostadas for breakfast, is currently working on a project that involves a ton of stitches, and wishes someone (maybe even herself, lol) would design a loom knitting project involving Entrelac…
Yep! It’s our own Purling Sprite, Isela Phelps! 😀 
Just drop a comment with your book choice, Isela, and I’ll send it right out to you…I know you mentioned you’d like to make a baby blanket, but just so you know, most of the blanket patterns are for crochet…maybe this is just the time to perfect a new craft, lol! 😉
***NEW WINNER!!! Isela has very generously passed the prize onto the next lucky person to be able to persue their crafting and get great inspiration…so the prize for the book goes to the next lovely lady in line: CAROL WILLIAMS!!! Congratulations, Carol! 🙂 Let me know which book you’d like and I’ll send it winging to your door.
A GIANT Thanks to everyone who participated in the comment contest! I had so much fun reading what you had to say and getting to know you a little bit better. 🙂
Have a wonderful week, everybody!
