last days of summer

Geneva has spent this week giving us glorious bursts of sunshine, and i have even occasionally been able to enjoy them without being mediated by the grubby windows of the Palais. Nonetheless, many things are changing here at the moment, and the weather is definitely among them.Which is, no doubt, reason enough to make the most of the time that is left.

My vacation provided a great opportunity to finally finish my beanie;
and start a new project (a cable-knit hunting scarf)

speaking of knitting, C & E: thank you so much for the snazziest present ever! you two rock my world.

london

magnolia electric company, radical nature and entire days of sunshine .. and me, somehow forgetting to take any photographs.

scotland

roadtripping adventures, mountain goats, the menacing pontoon in the loch, raymond carver, everything wet and the great uncertainty that surrounds all things.

but no vegetarian haggis.
