Is it really October already?  I'm such a bad blogger.  I think of things to blog about all the time, I just never get a round tuit.  Remember those?

I've more or less put the knitting aside for the time being.  I have enough frustration in my life without going out and creating more.  I have two crochet projects going at the same time which is pretty amazing considering I don't multitask very well.  I started Nancy's Wave Scarf in a yellow and white sport yarn and yet another baby blanket for a friend.  I can't locate the pattern for the scarf, but did find the link to the stitch it's based on here.  The baby blanket pattern I found at Lionbrand and it's called "All Season Throw."

I'm fighting arthritis so I can't crochet for long periods of time like I used to.  I did manage to get about 9 rows done on the baby blanket on Sunday which was a perfect crochet day; overcast, dark and cool.  I'm not even close to being ready for wintery weather but plan to visit my sister in Arizona later this month which will still have beautiful days and cool nights.  AND she has a heated pool!

I know I should be thinking about getting the links updated and getting some holiday patterns up, and honestly I have thought about it.  Really.  I shall make every endeavor to "get with it,"  "get it in gear," and light a fire under my motivation and provide you with more FREE CROCHET LINKS!!   Yay me.  Now, where are those matches?
