It’s been a busy week, so this will be a brief and utterly random photo post:
Our entire onion harvest. They are small because I planted a little late, and didn’t weed enough. I will plant two or three times as many onions next year, as these will only last us a couple of months.
It may be autumn, but these pretty purple wild asters are still blooming everywhere around here!
I knit this little cardigan and hat for my sister’s first baby, who is due October 3rd, so I need to get it packed up and into the mail tomorrow…

Look at all those onions! And I love the sweater.
Cute cardi – what pattern did you use? I like it.
The pattern is “Baby Jacket with Moss Stitch Edges”
by Rosie’s Yarn Cellar. It’s available here:
This is the second time I have used this pattern, I like it because it’s simple. This time I changed to moss stitch edging to garter stitch edging to speed things up a little.
Ooh, congratulations! Astrid has been wearing the jacket from you a lot.
Thanks. I’m really glad to hear that Astrid is wearing hers!
That cardi is gorgeous! I love the little star buttons!
What a lovely, soft shade — blue/grey? And the star buttons are darling!
You have indeed been busy!

The yarn is two ply – a white ply and a baby-boy-blue ply – together to give the soft shade. There’s a good picture of the yarn (by Louet) here:

I always wondered what those purple flowers were called. We have them all over the place!
We had a late frost so everything is late. I just harvested the potatoes, which were small, and the tomatoes are just turning red.
