The cabin frogs..

 ...and family, through second cousins.

But I soldier on with a real rat's nest on the back.

The peacock (who hosted a few green jumpers) called for a light pink center to its feathers' eyes.  Remembering Dziadzia's peacocks, the dark eye was outlined by a teal, and a sort of chartreuse in the feather. I looked at all the ugly yellow greens and chose the most gaudy.  Perfect.  A single stitch in the tail, looks nothing like the skein.  Better than pink, better than dark.


The tall flower stems and light pink flowers will finish this off, on what turned out to be 36 count, not the 40 as marked.

Never ending.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all!!

Your peacock is strutting! And he/she looks grand.

Still cold and wet here. Yesterday was gorgeous and we went to the nursery and spent a bunch on plants. I hope they all survive!

You, soldier, need to be promoted to general. Peacock is looking fantastically regal. ~Robin~
