October is the prettiest month.

Autumn eggs in knits

Easter rings in warm colours and knits in this neck of the woods. I try to draw these patterned eggs every year (remember these that Matt made?) but made more than the usual three or four, probably because I'm a bit stressed out. They help me breathe and focus. Have a very happy and peaceful Easter. I'm going to make my favourite people a pot of tea now and then put on a heavy pullover and take Boris (the best Boerboel-Ridgeback in the world) for a walk in the wet park.

Joy

I hardly know how to describe the immense joy, surprise and gratitude that was felt discovering these delightful creatures on our beach Christmas tree.
