A Visit To The Fair



While we're still enjoying Autumn I want to share some of the things I've been up to this season, including  a visit to the Country Living Fair, hosted every year by Country Living Magazine at the Ohio Village living history museum in Columbus. 



My pal Cheryl and I had a great time wandering through the vendors of handmade furniture, rugs, jewelry, artwork and much more, as well as antiques vendors who tempted us with vintage baskets, chairs, shoe lasts, and French flower buckets. 









Other interesting displays caught our attention, like this mountain of gourds and squash,




and a cool vintage auto.




An apple tree sagged under the weight of it's bounty of apples. 




We stayed so long admiring beautifully carved furniture, hand knit socks and artisan soaps that we were nearly the last visitors to leave! In case you were wondering, most of the artists had signs requesting that no photos be taken of their work, so it wasn't possible to share that here. But there was talent in abundance and, all in all, it was a fun day.

Thanks for stopping by today, I'll be posting soon with more knitting updates and other fun stuff.

Happy Fall!




Autumn has finally arrived, and very welcome it is too, after the heatwave endured by most of the country this summer. So it is with much enthusiasm that I post this greeting card to you for this lovely season! 

I took the above photo at the Country Living Fair and I'll share many more photos from this and another fun event soon.

If you haven't yet entered the drawing for a free copy of my latest pattern release, Amethiste, please do.


Even if you don't wish to enter the drawing, I'd still love to hear your thoughts. 

I wish everyone a wonderful week and a very happy fall season!
