I’m working on the beaded scarf again. This is about 1/3 complete on repeat four of 11 for the center portion. My goal is to finish this by October 5th at the latest when I’ll be leaving on a little trek with Grace, who’s moving to the other side of the US. I want to have this packed up and in the mail by then so it can be on it’s way to my scarf exchange pal well before the mailing deadline. It’s a pleasure to knit and there’s been very little ripping out so long as I’m sure to knit it when I’m alone in the house and things are quiet. The pattern is becoming more and more familiar so perhaps I’ll chance it and bring it to Sunday knitting so I can move along a bit faster.

Sedum is new to my garden this year and it’s just beginning to pink up. It’ll be a dark sort of brick red at it’s peak and will return year after year. They honeysuckle is still putting on quite a show and the bees are very pleased with that!
