Yikes!

Yesterday, Yahoo had a "back to school" graphic on their logo. It's gone today, so maybe they figured they had jumped the gun. Still, the Rudbeckia are in bloom and apples are dropping from the tree.



It has been such a cool summer so far that I just can't grasp that it's half over. Don't get me wrong, I love the cooler weather. There's just a nagging sense of "How can summer be half gone when it never really arrived?"

I ran across a new online knitting and crochet magazine that looks promising. Petite Purls focuses on items for babies and children, and the first issue has some cute ones.

Here's a charming project. Who knew a tarantula could look so cozy? An iguana, fish and hummingbirds are featured here. Thumbs up to the Stroud Knitting Group!
