I'm too boring for Blogging. Lately, nothing I'm knitting is worth it. Two out of three projects look the same as the last time they were photographed. Ink Spot, started the second side which looks the same as the first. Milkweed project is about three quarters done but looks like unblocked lace does. The un-named Knitty project, I'm on "that island" knitters dread.
I did knit up a sample for the shop in an Organic Cotton.
This is the eloomanator Diagonal Knit Dishcloth.
and a close-up.
It was a quick knit and fun to watch the pattern emerge.
And I knit up some of my homespun,
This if from All Spun Up, sorry I can't find the colorway name. Lovely fiber!
And used it to start Yarn Harlot's One Row Handspun Scarf Pattern
This scarf is done now but needs to be blocked to open it up. Again a quick and enjoyable project. And a great pattern to display long color runs.
I dyed some BFL superwash fingering weight yarn a light Turquoise.
It was kettle dyed and came out a very faint semi-solid. It's destined to be Evelyn Clark's Shetland Triangle.
That's it for my knitting. The garden has had some spectacular spring blooms.
The Graham Thomas Climbing Rose was severely cut back this year - guess it like it because it's out done itself with roses!
The Asiatic Lillies have kept blooming through rain or shine.
And the Jacarandas in the neighborhood have bloomed in all their glory.
(Yes, they're beautiful trees but you want to view them at someone elses house. Messy and sticky debris!)
The Photographer and I went to the Ocean Beach Farmer's Market a couple weeks ago. O.B. never got the message that the Summer of Love is over.
Annie say, "Hey."
