Flowers, Fly Swatters & Fasteners

Another nasturtium finally bloomed. Did you know they're edible and can be used in salads? I haven't yet since I have so few of them, but next year maybe I will.
A little more Ivy League knitting...Checkmate by Emily it is.Try not to mistake this one for a pumpkin. lolI finished the little shoulder shawl. Details here.
About a year ago I broke one of my Knitpick's Harmony needles, a US #4 needle. I didn't want to just throw it away and kept it thinkin' I would find a use for it sooner or later. Last weekend I sanded the broken end with fine grit sandpaper, applied a little furniture polish to finish it off nicely, and now, it can be used alone or in combination with this bangle as a shawl pin. I'd rather have a nice plain circle, but I found this laying around..maybe one of the grandgals left it. Looks like it's mine now...chuckles.
A bloom from the genus fli swattus. ;)
Hope your week is full of blossom after blossom.
