T stands for....fresh apple juice!

 Hello there, T gang! How are you? I missed out the last weeks, but am back now. Was not feeling like posting over the last two weeks. But here I am back to posting, hopefully regularly again.

So what was I up to the last weeks? I pulled out some more WIPs from my stash. For example this beautiful hexagon "blanket". I made 144 hexagons in 2016 (yes, that long ago!). So far I got 40 crocheted together. Took me a while to find a joining method I like.

I was translating the Frida's Flowers Blanket CAL for Stylecraft Yarns into German, together with a dear blogging friend, but had no intention to crochet the whole blanket. So I made only single flower hexagons in my own colorway to make a mathing cushion for the hexagon blanket.

These are all old photos, when I thought about how to join the hexies.

Also I did some gardening over the last weeks, harvesting what's left of the winter veggies, looking for signs of spring. My potted willow is showing its first catskins, being only two years old. I'm growing several bushes to built a stock for a hedgerow in our new garden. I have a bout 16 more potted, from maples over willows to privet and cherries and privet.

Here's a small maple, grown from a seed. Just put it into soil on Monday.

 I had another harvest of green kale. Yum!

Also due to the high temps the first of the solitary bees hatched.

We have a local farm, which sells veggies, fruit, beef and the most delicious apple juice in 5 litre containers. We just wento ver and bought another bag. A tasty treat!
