Needles, please knit me some Autumn

Fall for me has always conjured images of wearing fabulous hand-knit skirts with layered tops and calf-high shoes. This year, I intend to satisfy this itch of mine. I've been looking for nice skirt patterns. Knitty.com has the feminine 'bell curve' and the elegant 'sidewinder'. If you find other pretty ones, please do drop me a comment with the link.

Can you believe - Fall IK '09 has no skirt! Neither has the Fall issue of VK. The fashion houses don't want us wearing skirts this season? Now I want more than ever to knit myself some. :)

the elephants are just too much! I feel like making Gurjari-like strings of these elephants. :)

Post the elephants when done.. they look so girly with the bows and flowers :)

You can also form them into a hanging mobile or wind chime and attach little bells to their tails.. :)
