I'm a card carrying member of the Audubon Society, and proud of it! I have binoculars by the windows, and a journal that I record new birds I spot at the feeder or on our property. So..... I feel that it's not fair to be partial to any particular bird, I truly love them all..... but...... lately I've become quite enamored with our everyday robins. Don't ask me why. I don't consider them any more beautiful or special than other birdies... I just seem to see them differently. They're suddenly on my radar.
Above is a pair of wristies that I recently knitted. The springy pattern is from owl in the dark who designs the most darling knitting patterns. It's my first experience with intarsia knitting. Check out this blog. I also ordered, and am currently working on the "fawncho" pattern.
Here's my current "in progress" pastel. Angry little robin! Maybe spring hasn't gotten here soon enough for him.
Aside from "robin love" I'm also loving my new necklace made by Delila of Robin And The Sage. She lives in Finland, and with the necklace, she sent me some some white tea with blueberry muffin flavoring. I adore Delila's blog, and admire her connection with nature which she demonstrates in her lovely jewelry creations.
I had some ladies over for a rug hooking workshop the other day. They're using their new skills to take into our community to share with women who need help with life, family, and self-esteem. I was happy to give what I could to this worthy project. So..... just prior to tearing apart my studio with wool, burlap, snacks, and manically hooking women... I decided to grab a couple of shots of my creative space.
I thought I'd close this post with a picture of my dear little friend, Emma. Yesterday was her birthday and she got this sweet bunny hat. Emma's spring break is in two weeks, and she and I are going to have a special day of lunch, movie, and ice cream!
Happy Weekend!
