Officialy Springtime!

It's official, the spring time started, and I'm out of hibernation! In the garden, it's been spring for some time now, with everything budding and blooming already. I've been tiring myself there, pruning fruit trees, and digging here and there. There's been some sowing too, and I'm watching those lines in the vegetable garden everyday, hoping for some seedlings coming out...

There's also been some knitting, especially for little twins living far away.

The pattern is from the petit faune
company, on a leaflet, I did the 3 months size, and used Lang Jawoll, 2 balls in each colours. Most of the little cardi are knit in fairisle, on right side as well as wrong side rows, and it wasn't that easy to maintain the tension balanced. I was glad for the size to be so small in that! I am glad with the result, and now they're on their way to the little girls.

In a effort of WIP cleaning, inspired by the spring cleaning, I am now and finally, trying to finish the 2008 mystery blanket : after the knitting of the remaining squares, I am now sewing up :

.

But my hands are getting itchy with casting on for spring/summer projects! I have a few of the latest Rowan's patterns in mind, like ravenscar, marseille, oriris...
