My friend Karin had an evening gathering for our knitting circle at her home to offer up some of her hand dyed yarn and kindly let me bring some of my scarves to show. Here they are hung in the branches of the Japanese maple on a soft summer evening:

Mitered Cross Blanket

I finished my Mitered Crosses blanket! It ended up being 45" x 45". I especially like the way the colors in the I-cord edge dance with the colors in the crosses.

Summer Knitting

Was inspired to knit the I Crocodile hat from the latest edition of Knitty.com.  The colors remind me of the fabulous Tiffany windows found in the churches of Troy.

More inspiration from the deck garden - the tiny, delicate flowers of sedum:

I collect sedum because I love the texture and colors of their foliage, these amazing tiny flowers are a delightful bonus
