Best of your summer knits??

By -
 This is the view from the kitchen window. Serenity, nature, quiet.  I love it here. 
I'm not one bit homesick. 

It is the time of year when I am DONE with al fresco dining. 
The flys have multiplied and the bees are frantic. 
I will only eat in.  

I think this is my favorite summer knit  2016 besides the Stockings . 
 How about you? Favorite knit of the summer of 2016?

Apparently, this is my summer of TRYING it all and ACCOMPLISHING none of it! LOL

The view out your kitchen window is BEAUTIFUL! Wishing you a gorgeous fall ---- you know, I'm counting on you to post many, MANY pictures of the changing seasons.

I love the view from your kitchen window. Mine is of a house and I would rather see nature. :-). I've knit lots this summer, but probably socks have been my favorite knit. Lots of different patterns to try.
Blessings,
Betsy

What a fun necklace! Nice view! Looks like the Wisconsin woods! I bet it'll be pretty in the fall. I have lots of summer projects in the works; now if I could only knit faster. It's a tie for favorite between the two things I've actually finished: Sophia's rainbow and Stella's heart sweaters. I guess Stella's has a slight edge as I've made that pattern lots of times and Sophia's only once.

Love your view! Can't wait to see Fall and Winter pictures. Socks win the favorite vote for me.

Great view from the kitchen window - a lot better than my view!

I'm about to give up watering my flowers: I'm ready for fall and cooler temps.

Best summer knit? A Noro Hitchhiker scarf.

Nice view! It's going to be so pretty covered in snow this winter-if it ever gets here.
Favorite summer knit? My mitts from the Tour de Fleece and the Olympics. They were some good weeks on the couch.

I'm so happy for you in your new home! The view is wonderful.
So is the necklace! I liked knitting up the socks from my dyed yarns.

I love your view, it will be fun to see it change with the seasons. I swear I have not accomplished a thing this summer, at least it feels that way.
Hugs,

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
