Saroyan and Ornette

Saroyan, in Iocane from Rainy Days and Wooly Dogs, in Homecoming Queen's Got a Gun. I'm not sure I like the little splotches of "gunpowder," but I love the yarn over all, and the piece is pretty cute.




This pattern is Ornette, by Cookie A. It's not too hard, but not for knitting with kids around. The yarn is Wollmeise 100% sock in "My Old Blue Jeans." It's much darker than it appears here. So dark in fact, that I can't really see the stitches as I knit them. So far that's working out okay, though. I'm working on the gusset on this first sock.
And evidence that summer does eventually come to Vermont, though it never really feels warm. Sophia has been keeping the table looking nice with flowers from the garden.
