A beautiful walk.

On Monday we went for a gorgeous walk, me and George went out Sunday night to take photo's and discovered the woods at Duncliffe  full of Blue bells.   It was getting dark by the time we got there so I just had to go back Monday morning and get some photo's before the weather changed.

Tony and Arthur came too, which was great because I was free to take photo's while Arthur chatted and chatted..
We went through a gate along the path towards the woods,
then we turned left across the field and up through a gap in the bushes,
onto a lovely bluebell lined path..

and on further into the woods,
I stopped to take in the beauty around me, such great colours. I love this time of year especially when the suns shining.
We followed tracks through the blue bells,
'this way daddy'  Arthur decided to lead the way and was loving being out with his dad.
Tony asked Arthur 'what black and white animal lived down the holes'  Arthur replied 'Zebras?'..
While they searched for zebras I got down to flower level,
back on the homeward stretch,


Chatter chatter... Arthur did not want to turn left back down the hill, he wanted the walk to carry on allllll dayyy :)  

Colours of spring.

This is my summer hat I crocheted while on Holiday, not photographed very well, I need to get one of the boys to take a picture of me in it.  I like it but I am going to try and make the next one much more 'bucket like'. More like the old cloche hats.  It has been made using the Adriafil memphis cotton from my shop.  I was going to do a link to my website (now I have learn't how to do this.) but have just looked and I have not yet added the plain cottons...a week of photography coming up I think!
This is bunting i am knitting to show off the sock yarns I have just got in, I don't think any one could imagine how the ball of wool will knit up without seeing it. The long bit is the cord to hang the bunting from ( I think it would look great as a skinny scarf.) I will add felt balls and possibly buttons to the finished bunting.
My pile of finished triangles. I love the colours.
I have spent the last two days still in holiday mode. Sunday we went for a walk along the disused rail track at Sturminster Newton, Arthur rode his bike by himself for the first time and absolutly loved the freedom. It is a lovely place to walk, a nice safe path in the middle of beautiful countryside.
Today I took Arthur and Harry out with my Mum to Brokers wood .
We had a lovely picnic by the lake, and Harry ran off with Arthur so Mum and me were able to take some pictures.  It really felt like spring.
Harry and Arthur on the flying fox.

We saw wild orchids, bluebells, and violets, a brilliant time to walk in the woods.
The bluebells were just starting to come out, but I'm glad I got some pictures.  The last couple of years when they have been out it has constantly poured with rain.
The blossom looks beautifull every where. Back to work tommorow. :(
