Joey the little elephant loves Autumn, especially raking leaves and eating pumpkin pie!
Even though it is still officially summer my body is already in the Autumn mode, I am craving heartier dishes and pies. I think Autumn is my favorite season, I love Autumn colors in the garden and even in my clothing. I don't think I would do very well living somewhere that didn't have the four seasons. I think I have an Autumn brain, it is harder for me to come up with creative ideas in the summer but so much easier in the Autumn, then the ideas just overflow.
I am having the best time knitting these little sweaters, it's fun to come up with all kinds of new designs, and it is a great way to practice new knitting skills.
My husband took some more photo's over the weekend so I thought I'd share. This picture of a lovely tree with peeling bark is one of my favorites, I love how the sun shines through it. For some reason I really wanted to peel some of the bark....but I didn't, I am one of those people that can't stand to see loose ends, I always want to fix them!
Doesn't the color of this flower just scream Autumn, I think it is so lovely and rich looking.....hmmm it's just given me an idea for another sweater!Anyone else craving Autumn, or is it just me?

Oh, Kathy, your little Joey just wowed me! I love the whole look! I, too, love Autumn, and am looking forward to the cooler weather and all the fun activities it brings. Your husband's photos were once again spectacular!
Wow!!! Joey is the cutest autumn elly i have seen!!! my daughter loves him too, a brother for Lily. i just love all the knitted clothes you are making for your sweeties!!! i was not too sure about the tree or what it was, it looks fake, just so vibrant!!! yeah, i would be peeling the bark as well as my kids!! i am ready for fall too!!!
Autumn is my favourite season too. The colours are just divine. The pumpkin jumper is very cute.
I love your little jumpers - for the life of me I just cant get the wool right when I try to do little patterns like that - i always end up with holes!! I love the sun , so to me autumn signifies the start of a lack of sun which saddens me , although i do love the colours.

Shall I come in ? Joey is waiting at your doorstep ! and I can't wait to test your Pumpkin Pie ! Shall I have a cup of tea with it ?
I like his jumpers !!!
I love autumn too but not the idea of winter arriving just after...
that pumpkin sweater is adorable!
you are always coming up with such great designs - little Joey was so cute in his pumpkin sweater. Loved the nature photos too - what a great eye for detail your husband has.
Joey is just delicious! What a spanking pair of pants he has on! I love autumn too. It is truly my favourite season, no contest. It has a light, a smell and a sound like no other time of the year. If I close my eyes I can be in autumn in an instant! Enjoy the crunchy leaves! Jen
Hi Kathy, I have just found your blog courtesy of Esther at Hetty's Happy Days. Your animals are beautiful, I love the names you gave the mice. Fabulous photographs too. Nice to meet you.

Autumn is definitely my favorite season - love everything about it although we have very little autumn weather in Texas - right now all eyes are on Ike as it is rapidly heading to our area - Galveston is already evacuating. I fondly remember the beautiful autumn weather we had in Minnesota and miss it so very much.
Lovely, lovely photos.....autumn - bring it on!!
Your killing me with that pumpkin jumper!!!
Kathy,Joey is so special.The face is so picardy.And the most beautiful flower is back joey...SO,So perfect...Ilove your garden!Besos
I'm right there with you - this is my most favorite time of year. The colors and the foods - I love them!
Your little sweaters are so cute. It looks like you are surrounded by inspiration right now!
I hope our autumns last a long time.

Must look out for a similar flower, I would love that in my garden. The bark is fascinating too, great photos. I love your knits on the autumn theme too. x
