Late garden post: Collection for july.
Poppies for socius. They are fairly stunted, but surprisingly beautiful and ethereal in their fragileness. |
I added a fabric wall hanging to cover the ugly grey wall at the end. I actually wanted brighter colour but hey, it was cheap. |

Shall we tango?
They actually have become fairly ok friends now, getting into trouble together, generally hanging out in a friendly fashion and playing in non violent ways most of the time.
A few seconds before they were hanging on one side each of the tree, but I was too slow to catch that.

Step cats visiting
Nestor and Nemesis are here. In the photos it looks as if Linus is always sitting on top of the tree looking angry, but this is not the case, most of the time he is snoring in the sofa or an arm chair :)

Granny's table cloth, with sugar and spice and everything nice
I have been thinking about lace knitting, and about doilies and table cloths of the kind that, well, my mother's generation and those older knit and crochet, mostly in pastel colours. And so I was pondering this, and I decided I wanted to knit myself a little table cloth (or actually, as large as I would have patience for), but I would spice it up with kitschy neon colours. And while suffering through some Harry Potter (1,5 book, I never managed more), a book about the Uncertainty Principle, and some Feynman lectures, I finished a table cloth in happy stripes. All knit on 2mm needles.
So here it is; about 80cmx80cm, with fringes knotted onto the crocheted edge - not being visible in the photo since it was too large and wound up being blocked around rather than on top of the poor pierced footstool.
