  3. Ah, I remember the sweet smell of cherry blossoms! It's so wonderful to see what's happening on the opposite side of the Earth! Gorgeous roving, BTW~
    I can't wait to see it all spun up!

  9. ooooh pencil roving! Do you buy that in bulk? You have dyed it lovely colours!

    Is that a nectarine tree? Our blossoms haven't come out yet as we are just getting winter now :-)

  10. Spring. How oddly that rings in my head. I was expecting you to say, "Happy Easter!" And had to stop and remember that it's only leaves that are inverted between us, not holidays. How lovely that you get to smell the blossoms. But I am anxious for the quiet time, the nesting time of Autumn. The roving is, of course, beautiful.

  11. I don't think I could bring myself to use that beautiful roving. I would have to keep it as art :-)

  13. Dear Baa-Me Kniits,
    This is a Nectarine tree, it is in full bloom, I can't wait for the fruit to start forming:) Thanks about the roving colours:) I did buy the Alpaca in bulk, we have a mill a few hours away from where we live.

  15. We've been having a blast tie dying here. Lots of colorful t-shirts. I just love color. Lots of color in the spring after a dull brown/grey winter!
