We are in the transition between winter and spring, that wonderful time of the year called vårvinter (springwinter). During the lovely sunny days the snow and ice melts visibly, everwhere you can heare the sound of dripping water. The children are busy playing in the streams of water that are flooding down towards the lowest points in the landscape, and they came home dripping wet everyday. This time of the year it´s hard work to be a tumble-drier!The birds are singing. And the other day I found the first snowdrops in the garden! Growing up through the snow they came, so brave, so lovelly! Not long after that the aconites started to shine their yellow joy in another part of the garden.
But the night still belongs to the winter! The temperature rapidly drops below zero when the sun sets and soon all the streems of water freezes to ice again. And while the wind is howling around the house, I`m cosy inside with my knitting, a mug of tea and maybe a doughnut...
These are knit in Rowan Pure Wool DK and the pattern is from "Knitted Cakes" by Susan Penny.
