Autumn delights

I'm not normally a fan of red and yellow together, but these glorious dahlias and the vivid yellows and greens of the ginko behind them are giving us great pleasure at the moment

Today darling daughter and I are off to Knit and Stitch at Ally Pally, traveling up from the south coast to stay overnight so we are fresh for the fray tomorrow. We will be taking a class in something called "broomstick crochet" which I have been vaguely aware of in the past, though having no notion what it entails. 

We'll try not to spend too much ....
