Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness

My favourite time of year and I was confined to bed with the never-ending cold-from hell. For the first 5 days, I couldn't do anything, except sleep and listen to the radio. Then I felt able to do some knitting and finished a new shawl for me, in Plum (how fitting). It's in that super-soft yarn, Homespun, by Lion Brand and is the same pattern as the first shawl I knitted, in Shaker.

The sun is back today, so I may venture out for a short walk, wrapped up in my new shawl.
