Wow! Is the weather as wet with you, as it is here? It seems that ever since there were reports of drought that it hasn’t stopped raining. Mother Natures idea of irony! I really think that the rain has gone beyond April showers now. The upside of all this rain is the amount of time I can spend, guilt free, crocheting. Usually by now I feel I should be sorting the garden (which is looking neglected again, despite the work we did during the warm weather, whenever that was) but with all the rain my motivation isn’t there.
I have been crocheting way, and have almost finished my Bluebell...
What do you think? I am pleased with them, especially using the bead of the centres. All that is left crochet are the stalks. I am thinking of something similar to the Snowdrop stalk, so that the flowers can keep their heads bowed. I was looking in a book, and according to folk-lore, Bluebells hang their heads because of their association with death. Medieval archers used the sap to make a sticky glue for attaching feathers to arrows! There is an interesting, if a little morbid, fact for you!
Something more cheerful…crocheting all afternoon while listening to the rain fall on the ground. See there are positives in the rain…
