TWiP: October Feels

This Week in Pictures, Week 40, 2019

Warm drinks, handknits, mood lighting… it feels very Octoberish around here.

So, what is This Week in Pictures?

It’s a roundup of the microblogging I’ve done on Flickr and Instagram all week. This includes photos I shot for Project 365 and any other extra images I may have posted.

Photos taken with 📷 (Canon EOS 80D) or 📱 (Samsung Galaxy S7).

Ready? Cast your mind back to this time last week…

Saturday

271/365
My brother and sister-in-law hosted a birthday party for our Dad in their new house this weekend. I love these lights in their back yard.

Despite years of photographic evidence to the contrary, I always expect the swamp to be a riot of Autumnal color at this time of year. But nope. Still mostly green. Maybe in another week. Or two.

Monday

273/365
Four sweaters and two shawls in need of mending. This, hopefully, has taught me a lesson about leaving my room messy enough for my knits to spend time on the floor. We’ll see…

These little suckers really warm up a room. It’s rather surprising to me.

Wednesday

275/365
Not sure why I poured myself a cup of coffee 30 minutes before I go home for the day, but here we are.

Thursday

It’s rainy and 54°F. Sweater Weather! 😍
My grandmother’s buttons were just not right for this sweater… They kept slipping through the button holes, making this a very fiddly cardigan to wear. So, I made my own buttons last night, and they are perfectly sized and well matched color wise (a minor miracle, given the terrible lighting I have at the clay table after dark).
As polymer clay buttons go, these couldn’t be much easier. I’m thinking about making a tutorial. Would any of you be interested in that?

When your kid works at Starbucks, sometimes he puts weird names on your order 😀

It’s fall in my cubicle, complete with tiny pumpkins and flickering “candles” 🙂
