free rapunzel!

i started a campaign to free rapunzel from her tower.

i braided wool.. plait by plait... up to her window.

but when i reached the top and peeked in,

she was asleep... and with a little white cat on her lap.

she looked so peaceful and content,

that i climbed back down and left her there.

we are searching for starwhales

shhhhh they like whispering ♥ and soft purring. but you must wait.

they will attend to each petal. but only one at a time. that is best.

too many and it all gets in a rush... we must protect our hearts from being too busy... that makes them rush... then they dont work as well. they need time to breathe in the cold air that comes off of the snow.

today i am taking time to do things slowly. like watch for starwhales.

from now we will only do these things one stitch at a time ♥

wrapped in white dresses

we are tucking down into the down down feather nest today.

it is so cold the wind blows through the barn & up to the attic.

i found some little white kittens in a nice pot for my bone hooks.

they keep an eye on things. they want me to knit mice. only mice!

we only will work with cotton though so the lambs stay warm.

still we climb stairs up to the attic. so high we can see chimneys.

dust dust white dust snow. we hide & stay wrapped in white dresses.

sweet robins & baby lambs

little cranky lambs! it must be nap & apple time!

ive been knitting lots of wrist-ees.

in my new magic attic!

thats right we moved ♥ and were finally all settled in

turns out... there is a magic attic! ♥

ive set it all up so its half music studio & half knitting studio

all of the wool muffles the sound which is good for recording.

oh ps wanna see the little puppet? it made my heart skip a beat when i saw it. it was sitting on a table at the fair in the rain being totally ignored. the woman sold it to me for a fiver and looked at me like she couldnt wait to get rid of it. i loved it so much i kissed the creepy thing right on the spot. (and then made this hat in homage)

dont you want to KISS it!?
