Knitting and Reading ~ ROCK!

I can feel fall in the air~ and it is bitter sweet. I actually love fall, but winter on the other hand....Hmmm, I am hoping I can find some outdoor things to do in the Winter to help me get through it with a smile on my face~ Anyone ever tried snowshoeing?
I pulled out my knitting needles a few weeks ago and have made 4 scarves. A green one, but I forgot to take a photo of it before I sent it off as a gift~
The Orange one I did for my giveaway ~

and 2 purple ones for 2 of my closest friends...


Knitting is so peaceful and almost meditative for me. I love it...
I have also been reading this...


It is pretty good so far...
