Syrah Picking


I had planned to go to Lambtown in Dixon today, but instead I stayed home and helped with the harvest. We picked 8 tons of Syrah to be made into a Rosé. Conrad once again acted as the historian and documented the day with some very interesting photos. Today's weather was a lot nicer (read not as hot) as last weekend and we had fun working together (family and friends alongside the hired farm workers).
Yesterday I broke down and started on my sock yarn scrap blanket . It is loads of fun to knit on, but it will take forever to complete! Alison has already contributed some yarn (thanks Alison) and I have a small stash myself, but even so I'll need much more leftover sock yarn before this blanket will be done. I'll post a picture when I get a little further along and there is something more interesting to see.
