Rain, rain, please stay!

It finally rained today. Not much - definitely not enough - but it did rain. It is so dry that the leaves are falling off the trees and the grass is like straw. Not just a little dry, but brown and possibly beyond repair for the summer. I don't think I've cut it since the second week in July ( not too sad about that). There are no mosquitoes either, which is quite strange (not complaining about that either). The question is, will we be making up for this sometime this fall or looking forward to record snowfalls this winter?

I finished the Interlacements - tiny toes socks.





















This yarn was awesome! I absolutely loved working with it and also the way the color turned out. I used the fish scale pattern again but threw in some variations with a longer cuff and the star toe which I preceded with several rows of stockinette stitch so that you could see it a little better. They turned out quite nice!

Thanks to my Piper who modeled them for me. She also modeled her new smile....















She has lost 6 teeth in as many months and only 2 1/2 have grown back. If this trend continues, we are going to be eating a lot of soup!!
