...the mushrooms come out,
and it's been raining here for days.
I didn't get up to the mountains yesterday, feeling a bit tired.
So I curled up with magazines, books and yarn.
This issue of Kinfolk features all things Japanese and was a pleasure
to slip into as the thunder rumbled down the mountain.
I picked up the yarns at Purl Soho.
The red is called Camper (of course!) and is from Brooklyn Tweed.
The green is a fingering weight from Swans Island called Tarragon.
It was a pleasure to finally feel the yarns that I've been so enamored with!
A pair of Baltimore Orioles are nesting outside my window this year.
(Pictured second pair down in the field guide.)
The female is out and about more than the flashy male,
but both are too quick for my camera.
I painted my kitchen the top green on the color card.
It's cheerful and brightens up the dark little space.
Now off to make a stir fry for dinner.
Hope all is well.
xo, j
