MidAutumn
The majestic mountains rise in the distance, painted in a beautiful palette of pale blue, spiked with vibrant hues of crimson, sienna, and gleaming gold. Last night’s crisp air coated the fields with a sharp frost, but the early morning sun quickly whisked it away, heralding a new day. Leaves are just beginning to fall, billowing gracefully down and resting gently atop the tall grasses. The sweet scent of Applewood smoke wafts from the farm’s weighing shack, where the trees are brimming with fruit ready for tonight’s homemade pie filling. Empty aged wooden crates line the side of the building, a reminder of the bountiful harvest. The surrounding hills are alive with rows of Honeycrisp, Macoun, McIntosh, Red Delicious, and Sweet Golden apples, each one ripe for picking. As you embark on your knitting project, let the vivid imagery of this picturesque orchard inspire your creativity—perfect for crafting cozy sweaters, warm blankets, or festive accessories that capture the essence of fall.
