Sweets...

A cotton candy cloth in the Feather & Fan stitch…



This colourway reminds me of peppermint stripes…



I knit the cloth in stockinette stitch and a seed stitch border, 38sts on 4.5mm(US7) needles. It creates a smooth (knit) and a nubbly (purl) side - simple yet elegant.

Easter candy colours…





Our hydrangeas have been producing mega buds. I’m hoping for a bumper crop of blue blossoms this year…



Our one little patch of grape hyacinths are in bloom...




A mug shot…


Tea always tastes better with flowers.

So, we’ve reached the end once again, dear reader. I hope your week is a peaceful one and hope to see you next Friday.
