I made a bunch of these for an art event at a local park that I was going to be a part of last month, but I ended up unable to participate at the last minute due to some things happening in my family. This is the first chanterelle I've done -- cinnabar-red chanterelle, to be exact. I enjoy doing the stitch detailing for the gills such as with Lactarius indigo. It wasn't quite as pronounced on these since they are so much smaller, but I like how they turned out.

It's been a productive weekend on the knitted fungi front - as I'm trying to wrap up this series, I have about 3 others ready to post and one that will be ready in the next couple of days. The shorter days reduce the amount of time I have to get out and shoot photos of these after I get home from work (or before work, for that matter), but I will do my best! I would like to complete the series shortly after the New Year, if not before, so efforts will be amped up a little... which means more to see here on the blog until then! A holiday surprise...

Thanks to everyone for following along! Check out more posts from this series here.
