Shawl update

So I have finished the 1st chart & will start into the unexplored frontier of nupps in chart 2. Here’s my progress so far:

I will be using red iridescent beads as well. We’ll see how it goes.

Gardens R Fun

And a whole lotta work! So much devil plant, ie ivy, to rip out and shrubs to kill. I had a brilliant idea last night just before bed though. I am trying to improve my gardens for as close to free as possible. I take donations if anyone is interested. We have 2 sets of louver doors collecting dust in our basement because we don’t use them. What if I spray paint them chocolate brown & use them as trellises to replace the evil shrubs-that-won’t-stop-growing? So excited to try this!

I will post pictures when I get it done.

In knitting news, the Fourth Doctor Scarf is finito & I have started a lace shawl. Because I actually want complicated after 4 months of garter stitch. I will post pictures shortly. But for now, that is all.

Monday Musing: I am . . .

A garden enclosed.
