I learnt another new flower design. I think these ones look like primroses.

Is this the most satisfying, hand-wound, center pull yarn ball or what?

#Teatime with Mr. 'n' Mrs. C 🌞 ❤️ 🌻...

A trip to the pharmacy and Intermarche provided both necessities and treats.

I got my 4 signature herb plants 🎵 parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. 🎶 We also got fresh cobs and tomatoes for sandwiches. I had salami on mine.

Good morning, Sunbeams!

Bonjour, Rayons de Soleil!

I just finished making this sweet little crossbody bag using the Blessed Be Granny Square by WomanWalkingAWire. I think it's really pretty.

This morning I spotted a crumpled, 8-legged form on the floor at the base of the stairs.

Me: I hope that thing's deceased.

Mr. C: Yeah. I think the cats got it.

Later in the day...

Me: If it's dead, how did it get up one step higher?

So, now we've got zombie arachnids. 🕷🧟‍♂️

I made 2 of these cute squares & stitched them together to make a little pouch. I like to put candy inside them to give to folks like cashiers & receptionists.

Mr. C gave me The Granny Square Card Deck for my birthday. I'll #crochet 1 square every week with Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/8 yarn, size H (5mm) hook. This will give me 50 squares with 2 weeks to join them into...something before my next birthday. Week 7 - Diamond Square

Good morning, Sunbeams!

Every now and then, Moriarty deigns to lay on my chest for about 90 seconds, usually when I'm trying to edit something on my phone.

Every kindness,

however small,

is a seed

that can save a life,

a mind, a soul.

I was sitting in my hammock chair when Miss Watson started plucking the ropes like harpstrings.

Spring drive - who would have

thought that a drainage ditch could

be so beautiful?

Once again I was determined to see how many crocheted pretties I could eke out of one small skein of yarn. I got 5 coasters, 5 flowers and 1 little heart.

Out and about with Mr. 'n' Mrs. C and Sarah 🌞❤️🌻...

Sarah drove us to The Prefecture this afternoon. After several years of wading through bureaucracy I now have my Carte Sejour (permanent residency - Green Card) which is good for 5 years. 🥹 It's a beautiful day. 🇫🇷

Mr. C gave me The Granny Square Card Deck for my birthday. I'll #crochet 1 square every week with Hobbii Rainbow Cotton 8/8 yarn, size H (5mm) hook. This will give me 50 squares with 2 weeks to join them into...something before my next birthday. Week 6 - Jolie Fleur Square

In the garden with Mr. 'n' Mrs. C 🌞❤️🌻...

While Mr. C was preparing a large pot of soil so I could plant my tomato plant, Watson's sister, Moya, stopped by for a cuddle. Don't tell Moriarty and Watson!

😻😾😾

Eggs are so cheap in France you can find them just lying in the street.

We braved the wet weather to pop to the shops - no regrets but plenty of egrets.

To celebrate the Spring Equinox I'm supporting the creator of the Blessed Be Granny Pentacle, WomanWalkingAWire. People have stolen her pattern and passed it off as their own. If you want to make this pattern, please buy it directly from her. #crochet

Mr. C says:

Fair Damsel made paella - a Spanish dish of saffron rice, chicken, mussels, and chorizo for dinner tonight.

Absolutely Sunbeamadelicious.😋

Hearing loud machine noises outside, I asked Mr. C if he knew what they were. He said it's an excavator and a tractor. They're fertilizing the field next to us.

🐮💩

I think we'll keep the windows closed today. Ah, country living!

Once again, I'm obsessed with a new flower pattern and am having a grand time playing with different colour combinations.
