I don't know why this picture is sideways, but anyway, here's my giant allium with some raindrops. We've had 3.69 inches this month, probably half of that in the last four days!
I haven't posted a lot of knitting on here in the last few years. Not much to say about it but I still knit. I knit because I love to create. I knit because I love sweaters. I knit because I grew up with a mom who is artistic beyond the acknowledgement she receives, and it's in my blood to do something creative. I knit because I love the good things God grows, like sheep and wool and muskox and cotton. I knit because I love colors. I knit because my boys wear what I knit. I knit because I like the rhythm. I knit because it has a beginning and an end, and they are achievable. I knit because when my hands are busy, my mouth slows down, and it gives my brain a chance to make better decisions. I knit because I'm really, really good at it, and it's one of the few things that others acknowledge, and we all need that. I knit because I love to knit. I'm working on a colorful shawl in alpaca.
What a beautiful picture! I sure wish you'd send rain our way -- we've been promised rain for four days and all we've had so far has been a little bitty shower.
ReplyDeleteLots of rain here, too. Everything is so green. I love the allium - I don't think I've seen one before! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWe got some much needed rain today! It has been so dry here this month! What a pretty allium!
ReplyDeleteI thought it looked like you were getting a lot of rain, Karen! I was living in Greeley in the 70's during the Big Thompson flood - what a nightmare that was - and we had come down from visiting Estes the day before the flood! Here's hoping these rains aren't so bad!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
That is a gorgeous picture! I loved the rain.:)
