I love March for lots of things - clocks going forward, spring bulbs and baby animals springing up all over the place. I also love it because my birthday is in March, today in fact! So I'm going to sit with my feet up and a big pile of yarn that I bought recently and decide what to knit next.
Practical sock yarn with some interesting colour changes and a bit of cheats fair isle to boot!
This yarn is just so gorgeously soft and squashy. It's almost too nice to knit with; I just want to sit and cuddle it!
I've been wanting to show you a picture I took last week of a crocus flower in our front garden. It's so elegant and I just love the tiny threadlike stripes which run through it.
I just love Japanese gardens too - they're so tranquil.
The weather is officially poo here today so I'm just off to pop the kettle on and rummage through the fridge to see if I can find some of the children's chocolate which might be hiding in the back of it. Mmmmm - stolen chocolate - tastes even better than honestly acquired chocolate......
