Since we came back I have finished 4 projects and so I think I deserve to start something new or 3 somethings.....
There's the June Secret Scarf...not showing that, but it is pretty cool...Clue: Remember that the Farmer's Markets starts On The Square in June......
And I had this in my queue for quite a while and feel like crocheting so I started last night in group. This is a free pattern from Crystal Palace in Mini Mochi - The Flower Garden Shawl. I am using their suggested colors but changing the pattern a bit....Theirs had the green squares on the outside of the shawl sort of like the grass at the edge of the flower bed. I decided (with Lisa's help) that green outside on each of the squares worked better for when I am sewing them together and gives each "flower" some foliage. Here are some squares...
They are wonderfully fun and quick and I love seeing what color will come next in the ball. Anyone want a class?
Here's the other thing I started on Thursday in the morning group...A little shawl in Noro Sock yarn
It is reversible and easy but requires just enough attention to be interesting cause you change the stitches whenever there is a color change - It is the Gaia wrap and is free on Ravelry.
Here are some flower pictures - obviously this is where my current attraction to purples and green is coming from.
I think these delphiniums are the best. Oh I wish the cicadas would hurry away - I can't really do much dyeing with them all over my clothesline where I hang fiber to dry....
