There’s not much knitting progress to show you today. Clue 4 of the Perfect Blend shawl has not come in yet, so no changes there. The intarsia-in-the-round socks are in progress! I have halfway through the intarsia part of one of them, but right now it looks like a wad of double point needles with a bunch of chaos attached to them. So not in a state to show off right now.
However, our flowers have been doing really well this summer! This is mostly due to my Mom deadheading them daily, and also she dealt with an aphid infestation we had, which no doubt saved them 🙂 Also, DH has done a lot of the watering this year, so they really are team-effort flowers! In any case, they are looking much more filled in than when they were planted just a few short months ago.






So that’s how our garden grows. How about you? Any flowers or produce? How’s it going?
Your flowers are beautiful! Our perennials are doing well. The annuals are a mixed bag. The planter on the patio is 75% excellent. The one on the front steps looks pretty bad.

Flower planting is always a mixed bag. But they are mostly pretty, so it’s worth the shot 🙂

It’s been very wet. Flowers that love the water are phenomenal and flowers that like it dry are unhappy. Never a middle ground but we enjoy whatever likes water this year.

I’m loving the flowers on my deck. I don’t normally have many, but they may become a summer staple as they make me smile:)
