The backgrounds in today's pictures are pillow cases from Cotton Colors on Etsy.  The pumpkin candle is from Rabbithollowprims on Etsy.  See the interview here.

Celebrate, Knit, and Share! Scarf pattern is a slightly modified version of  The Man Scarf from Knit 1 for the Road and knit with Vegas from SWTC in Viva Las #421 and I lightly felted it after knitting.  Wrist warmers are knit with Halloween from Herrschners in green and orange.  The pillow is knit with LionBrand Thick & Quick in Butterscotch and Northland Chunky Delight in Creamy Caramel.

Some items going out to Jackie Peraza of Mothers & More Greater Raleigh/Durham, Chapter 331

When I send out items for charity, I try to always included a description of what the item is or can be used for, care instructions and bag them for shipping and storage.  In some cases, especially with gifts, I add a strand of yarn from the project for quick repairs.  Thanks to  Jackie Peraza and Sandy Holladay on CreatingTheHive.com for sharing the info about this opportunity to contribute.

Stay tuned tomorrow for a Knit Knitavian Style Giveaway and remember to grab your special Knit1fortheroad online 15% discount at Soakwash.com.  Just use code K1FR.  Discount is good until Oct 15, 2010.  Friday is Oct 1st and there's a new free pattern in store for you.  See the Soak post here.

Upcoming Book Signing Event:  Crafty Bastards! Arts and Crafts Fair, DC, Oct 2, 2010, 10-5 Booth #89, Knit Outta The Box.

Oh how I love that good crafting vibe...Event update!

It's almost time for Crafty Bastards! Arts & Crafts Fair in D.C.  This Saturday, Oct. 2 - 10:00 am - 5:00 pm - there'll be clear skies, nice temps and a slight hint of Autumn in the air.  Oh how I love that good crafting vibe...the air is filled with the excitement and anticipation of crafty goodness all around.  Scrumptious!  Anyway, before I drift away on a cloud, I wanted to update you.  I'll be signing books, hanging out with Laurie of Knit Outta The Box and helping her at Booth #89 in the center of all the action.  Dogs are allowed so Molly, who is also featured in Knit Knitavian Style, will be there to put her paw stamp of approval on the festivites, wave her paws, wag her tail, and give out kisses.  Molly is a pro at any festival and knows how to work it.
