Will winter ever come?

So that I can wear my scarf? I love scarves & have oodles of them, and find it hard to resist when I see another cute one! I have summer ones & snuggly ones...every colour of the rainbow! When we were at Nundle I bought this kit of Anni Downs...super snuggly flannel with felted wool applique. I just need to make the bauble edging & I am right to go...if the daytime temp ever falls below 30 deg!!!
Yesterday the mail arrived with a gift from my "sister", Bronwyn. Neither of us have a sister, so we have adopted each other...it is great to have a sister after all these years. She had made me this beautiful scarf out of a silk yarn...I am dying to wear it!
Here is a pic of the rainbows from my back garden a couple of days ago...pretty!

Love the scarf you made, and the one that Bronwyn gave you as well!
I know what you mean about the weather, can't wait for it to cool down.

What a wonderful scarf! Prim style looking so it fits my personality for sure. Trouble is, we don't have the climate here for something like that.

Oh Alison, both scarves are just gorgeous. Can we have the temp drop JUST where you are 'cause I'm enjoying the warmer Autumn but I think it's gone now as we had a bit of rain today and it's cooled off already. xx
