Wonderful Word Wednesday

September

by Helen Hunt Jackson

The goldenrod is yellow; The corn is turning brown; The trees in apple orchards With fruit are bending down. The gentian's bluest fringes Are curling in the sun; In dusky pods the milkweed Its hidden silk has spun. The sedges flaunt their harvest In every meadow-nook; And asters by the brookside Make asters in the brook. From dewy lanes at morning The grapes' sweet odors rise; At noon the roads all flutter With yellow butterflies. By all these lovely tokens September days are here, With summer's best of weather, And autumn's best of cheer.

Yoke Sweater for Alex

I got the boy to model the sweater I knitted for him...not to his neglect but we had rain for three days.

Cool Dude Pose

    The pattern and the yarn are Bernat...I really like the denim style yarn it is very soft and easy to work with.

The Sensitive Sweet Guy Pose

The pattern was a little difficult to read.  Kind of skipped a few steps...but I figured it out.  It was also written different than what the photo showed. I had to use four balls of blue instead of three  But it fit well, and I will be making one for my doughtier in Red.  Hers I will make a size larger, though his is a perfect fit...it will not fit him next year.

Fun Lovin' Guy Pose

I am not selling anything...but if you want to make one go to www.bernat.com and the sweater is called Yoke Sweater.
