The four of us carved pumpkins. Adam and Nigel carved the one on the left, Adam doing the design and most of the carving. Finlay and I did the one on the right - mostly me doing the carving with advice from Finlay.
Lets take a closer look at those scary faces...
Oh, you didn't mean the pumpkins?
Also, I paid a visit to the newest local yarn store purlescence yarns. It's a bit of a trek from here to Sunnyvale but they did have a few things not carried elsewhere at the local stores. They had a large selection of both Rowan and of sock yarns. Also, an excellent range of hand-painted yarns. I bought a skein of Socks that Rock yarn from Blue Moon Fibres which is not carried any where else. Also, a skein of Malabrigo which is hand-dyed peruvian wool similar to Manos, but much, much softer. Both of these are destined for me...once I have finished all my Christmas knitting.
I plan to make a hat from the Malabrigo which is a lovely shade of burnt orange, and... well... socks from the STR.

... but Sunnyvale is nice and handy to pick up Finlay's space ship. And so much quicker to come home in it, no doubt. Or have the police impounded it by now?
