Summertime




The Water Warriors preparing for battle. Secretly stashing the water balloons, readying their weapons. They fought valiantly, until J. filled buckets of water and doused them. There were some tears, and a change of clothes and the promise of revenge for next year.

Knitting? Oh, just a bit. Knit a scarf in summer? Well, I didn't have a scarf until my friend B. took pity on poor scarfless me and knit me a beauty out of Louet MerLin. Okay, long story, but this is the scarf I am making myself, really, yes, I am really making it for ME. It's fairly easy to knit in the car without making me carsick. Okay, THAT was too much information!

Noro Silk Garden

Other knitting (that I have photos of...) D.'s sock. Yes, I said sock. The other one will be knit sometime soon-ish.

Diamond Waffle from Knitty.com

Lorna's Laces yarn in a one of a kind color from the warehouse sale.

I knit this as a surprise Father's day gift for D. I wasn't sure if it would fit, but luckily his identical twin brother was in town and tried it on for me and I got to measure his foot to make sure.
D. isn't sure he likes them. He asked, "What will I wear them with? Jeans?" Oh, well.

Oh, and one last thing, Ollie, just because.

Great photo of the water warriors! LOL

How is the sock going? Has D figured out what to wear with it?
