I don’t recall how I stumbled in this direction, but the other day I found the cutest knitted fruit basket project from Frontier Dreams via Living Crafts. I know we are still enjoying the throws of summer, but I am already starting to think a bit about the upcoming holiday season. How do we want to celebrate the year’s end? How do we keep it simple and sane, and budget friendly? How do we make our celebration eco-friendly? And what can we make, design, and create to more fully partake in celebration?

This incredibly cute, and easy to knit up, project caught my eye because of the colors. It is a soothing combination of autumnal orange, green, red, yellow, and brown all in one tiny tree ornament. Perfect. Petite. Precious.

So this is my green apple start anyway. The kids seemed to like these tiny beauties as well. I don’t know if they’ll ever get to stay IN the basket.
