I love that New England is finally feeling like fall – the nights are cool, people are generally cheery and not bitter about the weather yet, and working with wool is nice again! I finished a test knit of a cowl that I look forward to wearing. We will ignore the portion of the weather forecast that says this weekend it will be in the 70s / 80s. 
The “Tartan” cowl by Caryl Pierre is soon to be released. I used O-Wool Classic in blue and O-Wool Balance in grey. I love how this cowl is shaped – it will sit nicely on your neck under a jacket collar to keep you warm, no gaps! It is large enough to pull up to your nose, or fold over and set in place with a shawl pin (gotta get me one of those, maybe at Rhinebeck!).
Jackson was less than impressed, but the colors look nice on him.
The Funky Chicken is Nate’s chair buddy – I think this photo is one of the best ones we have of him – his eyes are open, he’s not crying, and there is the hint of a smile. 
Most of the other photos he looks like this:
At least Lorelai seems a bit more game to take photos again.
I really like the cowl you have made, it is a very nice pattern 🙂 Although you can see Jackson isn't impressed with it :)The funky chicken is adorable 😀 Nate looks pleased 🙂
