And enjoying the weather were those funny flowers. I say funny because I remember buying bulbs which were supposed to give many small pink flowers. Instead I have these ones.
They are huge and last only one day! They make nice pictures though!
On the crafty side, I have been in wool up to the neck! I mentioned earlier on that my mother brought me a huge bag of raw wool from Ireland. She scoured it too which was very nice as it smelled a lot.
That´s a picture of the raw wool
which I carded
and then spun
before dyeing it.
I wanted to dye it purple but it turned out a kind of denim. I am knitting it now and I can already say that it is going to be a very warm garment.I wish you a nice Indian summer.

Je pensais que j'allais avoir un tricot mauve mais non j'aurai un tricot bleu.Cela n'est pas grave car j'aime bien la couleur.Très belle cette fleur.
Oh my goodness! I love seeing how the pile of wool was turned into such beautiful yarn!!!
However did I miss this little post?!?! The yarn looks amazing, it surely must be the blue in the sweater you just finished, yes?
