Spring

Just playing around last night didn't feel like starting a new rug yet so I made this little punch needle piece. Since it was just a quick doodle I thought I'd share it with you...feel free to make whatever you want out of it just remember to share the credit if you do :) If you want the finished product it"s available in my Etsy shop.







It's a dreary rainy day here so off to play with some wool :)

I would say Spring is in the air...but we seem to have skipped it and went directly to Summer. Today was a high of 27 and then that nastiest of nasty words Humidex was added we went up to 31 celsius whhha???? it's only March!! Oh well at least it hasn't been raining so YAY no mud... with 2 very active puppies this winter has been a never ending battle with mud..yep lots and lots of mud not quite what you think of for a Canadian winter is it? What a strange year 2012 is shaping up to be.
 I've been busy hooking away and have finished up a log cabin rug it's a gift so I won't post any piccys of this one. I've been slacking and am only half way through the basket weave crochet afghan. I'm hoping it will be done by next winter lol.
My gardens have been calling me and so far I have resisted the urge to work in them(just a little bit of puttering and weed pulling).It's been so tempting to plant a few things but I just know it's way too early and more than likely I'll just lose everything to a frost. Anyone given in to the urge?
