Top Two Tuesday: Halloween and Fall

Top 2: Halloween or Fall crafts/decor/party ideas

1.  Well, it isn’t really a Halloween craft, but I believe it was inspired by fall.. that is knitting!  I have started knitting and have done a little crocheting.  When I was about 10 my Auntie gave me a crochet needle and a spool of thread and taught me how to crochet a chain.  I do not know the fancy term to describe the type of crocheting it was/is, but I still have the original chain I made, somewhere.  I have played around with it and finally decided to invest in a few knitting tools.  So far, I have several different sized needles, circular needles of different sizes, a few spools of wool yarn, and a few knitting books.  I have started on a scarf, which actually looks really great so far, Yay!!



2.  My other favorite fall thing is sort of a decoration… PANSIES!  I LOVE PANSIES.  Next to Tulips in the Spring, pansies are my absolute favorite flower!  I suppose this is because fall is my favorite season of the year, and pansies are one of the few flowers that blooms after the frost.  I remember growing up we always had pansies; they just make a house look like a home, especially while the leaves are changing color.  I have some on my porch right now.  =)
