After the grey, we've been enjoying some gloriously sunny days. All around, there are signs that winter's grip is loosening.
The early appearance of daffodils might suggest that this winter's grip has been more of a limp handshake than anything with substance.
It was the sight of my neighbour's beautiful purple crocuses, in full bloom, that made me realise why this yarn has been especially appealing lately.
Time for a pair of spring socks I think.
The crocus are lovely, I saw some purple ones in the grass the other day, just like in that sock yarn!

Daffodils and snowdrops, makes me so homesick. Love the pictures and the color in the wool looks great.

Odd, I don't like yellow and purple together as clothing - but it looks absolutely fine in purple and yellow crocuses side by side....also in winter pansies.

That is the most glorious colourway!

Urgh, lucky you to have spring, when we are just getting the worst of winter.
