Ça sent l'automne - le granny col (snood) à la canadienne -- The smell of autumn is gently fragrancing the air...and with it comes the returnof the Granny snood, ``à la canadienne``!

Bonsoir à vous tous -- Good evening all
 
Hier, je vous ai montré mes petits paniers et aujourd'hui j'ai déjà autre chose. Probablement le résultat de trop de télé... Et pas assez de sport ou même de ménage. J'ai eu une grosse semaine au bureau et j'avais besoin de me détendre un peu. Ce matin je suis allée bruncher avec mon amie Lise. On n'a pas que manger... Ça me fait toujours du bien de la voir et je ne comprends pas pourquoi je ne la vois pas plus souvent. Ce n'est pas elle, c'est moi, qui s'enferme dans ma coquille et y reste des mois. --Yesterday I showed you my little bread baskets, and today, I already have something else to share...Probably the result of too much TV...and not enough physical exercise, or even cleaning. I had a big week at the office, and I needed to unwind a little. So, this morning, I went out to brunch with my friend Lise. We didn't just eat...It always does my good to see her, and I don't know why I don't do it more often. It's not her, mind you, it's me who stays hidden in her shell for months.


Lise et moi sommes allées chez le marchand de laine pour faire des provisions. L'hiver s'annonce occupé pour toutes les deux et nos crochets feront du 100 à l'heure. -- Lise and I went to a wool merchant's to stock up, because this winter carries the promise of whirlind crocheting for both of us, what with said needles going furious pace of 100 km an hour!

Une fois arrivée à la maison, je n'ai pu faire autrement que de m'installer sur le sofa, prendre mon crochet et me laisser aller dans les grannys... Faire le point granny signifie l'ultime détente, un moment presqu'intime : ma laine, mon crochet et moi. -- Upon my arrival home, I couldn't help but plop down on the couch, take out my crochet, and let the grannys work their magic...For me crafting, the granny stitch means allowing myself an ultimate time of relaxation, an almost intimate moment between me, my wool and my crochet.

Aujourd'hui je vous montre mon col à la canadienne. Tout en granny. -- Today I show you my cowl, ``a la canadienne``...Granny style.


 Finition point d'écrevisse -- Crab stitch: finished product.


Résumé :
 
1 step : granny square : 8 rows.
2 step : granny stiches
3 step : join with sc
4 step : crab stitches
 
À bientôt -- See you soon

  1. Love your granny cowl, you did a great job. When work and life are crazy it is good to settle down with yarn and your hook.
    Have a great week,

    1. You're all right. Last week I asked for English course at my office. I think that they will give it to me. All is in French at the office but sometime i have to read some paper in newspaper... About economy...
      This afternoon, i will go to the festival western in St-tite. It´s the second in Canada after Calgary. Olivier goes with us... It will be a real challenge of all of us!
      Have a nice week and x for Lbody and you

  8. Oh la la!! Les écharpes ça sent l'hiver aussi... j'ai pas envie d'être déjà dans le froid...
    Espérons que cette année soit moins pire que celle passée..
    En tout cas cette écharpe est superbe, ne manque que les gants A.. ça me fait penser aux singes chaussettes ..
    Bonne semaine Lucie.
    Miss.
