This summer, there was construction on the back of our house which dislocated my morning musings. I was forced to the front porch, where I dragged this ratty old chair. Early in the morning, with a glass of Zen tea, my journal and whatever project I plan to work on, I embed myself, behind the overgrown lilac bushes and flowering trees, to work for a quiet hour or two.
Soon I realize that I am not alone.
So, now we call this morning tradition “Lizard Watch”. Today, on my one day off, I have dragged puzzles to the porch – a mystery novel and a new way to knit. Musing, murder mysteries and making things in the fresh air and sunshine…..
This is how my light gets in.
Hi Gretchen

Hi Suzanne! So you love Chief Inspector Gamache, too? I wish I could live in Three Pines!! (oh, except for the snow..) The “new” way to knit is really just a new way of thinking about knitting. It’s called “Sequence” knitting, and I will do a post about it, with some pictures, later this week. It’s a super simple way to make complex patterns, and I am having a total blast with it!! I promise to explain better, this week!!! So nice to hear from you!!!
