Moss Agate ....its dry




This the plain side with no ends etc



Well another day dawned - sunny and mild
See typical English all we talk about is the weather - which here in East Anglia has been dry and very windy past weeks ................. my grass is brown, trees are wilting - lost our second tree - a willow bit the dust (last year lost the Mountain Ash/Rowan  - no not the yarn)

Well decided my green freeform piece - now a shawl looked more like Moss Agate than lichens ............. so renamed it
It has been washed and curently drying outside in the fresh air - looking good colours and fabric much softer

Finished my Book Club book - City of Thieves - David Benioff - which was good. The artmosphere, bitter cold, conditions of War in Leningrad and the exploits of the young Jewish lad very well described ............ maybe it was that rather than the weather that was making me feel so cold ......... brrrrrrrrrr

Now as I am hosting book club this week - am tidying (which includes moving all my wool/magazines etc) upstairs and must select teh next book for them .......... of dear and cant decide which or what book ................ and cakes to buy/make for them to eat

ITS DRY ...............and much softer in texture and colours which are also brighter




This side with all teh ends knotted and plaited - awaiting beads etc 
 See how much softer it is and colours brighter


Now collectd a few cones for agate mark II ......................... be cream and rust and a stone colour .................
