First snake of the year
We’ve had the first snake of the year in the yard today. My son looked out to see what the dogs were barking at and saw it striking at them. He managed to get them away from it and into the house. I didn’t go out to see what kind it was. Mostly, we get moccasins, and I don’t care to get anywhere near them. I wish the dogs would leave them alone but they don’t seem to have that much sense.
I have one more side seam to sew on Milinda and then I can pick up and knit the neckband. Boy did I get a shock when I put that pale ash pink yarn in the water to soak for blocking. The water turned a horrible greenish black! I couldn’t believe that light colored yarn could bleed such a dark, ugly color! I was worried that it would stain the yarn and anything I set it on to block, but I squeezed the life out of it :whip: and nothing awful happened. Maybe I can finish the seaming tonight.
