Granny 113, 114; And the rain came pounding down

113

114


I'm loving this peacock blue yarn that is in the center of this square.  One of my favorite hues, and really hard to find.  I think I had better order more of it while they have it!

I asked my daughter what I should put around the outside edge and lilac is what she chose.  That's what the Coalescent in the blog's title is all about...how colors can just coalesce and be amazing together.

Both squares today are from 99 Granny Squares to  Crochet.

While I was getting these photos ready to post, it suddenly began to sound as if there were a thousand drummers on my roof.  Just the loudest pounding...I grabbed the camera (of course) and ran on out to the deck in my bare feets...

You know it's really coming down when you can see the rain in the photo!  Wetness!  This storm coming in is why we didn't get to see the eclipse yesterday.

Sigh.  I never get to see the eclipse, unless I travel elsewhere :)  On the other hand, it's not 100 degrees here!  Gotta love that, and I will take the rain anyday.




Gutters completely overwhelmed.

    1. I agree! There is something about the sound of the rain falling that is just so calming. Our rain lasted about thirty minutes, too, but there sure was a lot of it!
