Poll: Orange or White?
Ok all you fans of Nanny Goat Crafts, I need some help!
I have been knitting the pumpkin caps in the regular color of orange with some verity of stems and leaves.
But now I am thinking of knitting them in a different color. I am thinking of white with green leaves and tan or brown stem.
As you know the stores have the regular colored pumpkins as well as the illuminates, white pumpkin. I need to hear from any and all fans of my caps. Would you all want and wear the white caps?????
So to answer me please say yeah or nah in an email to rebbiesmom@yahoo.com I wait your thoughts.

That great Fall time.
School is in and the weather has started the Fall temps. I am glad for this time of the year. I find that with the cooler temps most of us feel a lot better.
There are things to do each weekend that has to do with fun times right in our home town. The Great Frederick Fair is in town this week. There are rides and farm animals to go see. Great food tents and these vendors are local churches and groups that we all know. The Fair has been going Strong for many a year. I can remember it when I was a child as well as when I grew up to be a teen. Then when I got married and had my family I took my children to see it. I use to enter my quilts in the Fair in the Household. I won a few ribbons too. Then once my children got to be teens they went with their friends.
Fall can mean a lot of different things to different people. It is a time of changes too. We see some of those changes in the trees and the animals. There are fruits of the fields and gardens that now are in the pantry or the root cellars. Jams and jellies and pies and preserves all lined up on the shelves. Pickles and chutneys are there too. All kept for the Holidays and Winter eating.
Soon the Winter snows could be on the land and the roads. That is when most of us look like Eskimos with all the Winter wear on. I can say I can wait for this to come for some time later on. But for now, I will take the cool/warm days of our time called FALL!

Is it a hint of things to come?
Ah, what a few beautiful few days we have had. Sunday was breezy and cooler today was cooler, only 72. We even had a light breeze blowing all day. Tonight they are calling for the lows to get down to the upper 40s. So is this a look into the future? If so then it is time to get out a few caps and a light coat. Or maybe even the pumpkin caps I have been knitting. I have a new hat this year it is a apple cap. Bright red cap with two small leaves coming out of the top of the cap.
With the cooler weather for the next few days, we all could use a shawl or wrap.One that is knitted and
warm against the breezes that are too cool. I have a bright red prayer shawl or a raspberry colored tri cornered shawl. Both will keep the chill off and are in the store right now. I use my green one to sit here and write this page tonight. The air that is coming in is a bit cool and yet feels oh so good.
Can you remember the snow that we got for the middle of the October fun? Well, that is when we really knew we might just need the shawls, caps, mitts and scarfs before the real Winter set in for a few months. I for one was glad to have the shawl, mitts and caps for Winter. So, come on in and take a good look at the
new colors in all the cap, mitts, shawls and scarfs here at the Nanny Goat Crafts in down town Frederick,
Maryland. I am open Tuesday thu Sunday most weeks. Call if you would like to make sure we are open:

Happy Fall Ya'll
