it’s still winter here in melbourne, but there are some sneaky signs of spring popping up here and there. for example, the magnolia trees are in full flower (i always think the blooms look like flocks of birds perching in the branches of a dormant tree)…

… and little orla has her ears pricked to the sound of birds chirruping outside (don’t worry, she won’t be able to eat any - she’s an indoor cat).

i’m enjoying the cosy, rainy days while i can!

in other news, my etsy shop has been re-stocked with pdf patterns, kits, and a limited supply of needle keepers.

i have some ideas for new patterns floating around in my head, and i’ll be sure to show you as soon as they come to fruition!
