Happy Halloween



It's pretty quiet tonight in Windanseaville....Slugbug Mary and Witchy Anna are down the hill trick-or-treating with John, Hippy Fiona is doing homework, the dogs are hoping somebody will drop some candy, and I am getting ready to go in and watch my new Elizabeth Zimmerman DVD.




I'm knitting away on a February Baby Sweater from Knitter's Almanac. It's kicking my butt - I don't know what it is about some projects; it's not particularly complicated, but for some reason I've had to tink back rows two and four of the gull pattern in both repetitions I've knitted so far. I must say that the garter stitch yoke is very pretty, though. I forget how beautfully simple garter stitch can be.

We hardly ever get trick-or-treaters on my street; I think the houses are too far apart and the street is too dark. I am ready just in case, though: I have a basket of candy and the costume nobody else wanted to wear this year. Good thing I don't embarrass easy, huh?
