Whether you consider it a global warming crisis or just the Earth breathing like it has for the past thousands or millions of years, the old saying 'April showers bring May flowers' feels a little different the past few years. It has snowed well into May and despite Mother Nature's best efforts to discourage them, the vegetables in the garden and the flowers in their beds are growing. As if to thumb its nose at Mother Nature, the crabapple tree in the back yard has created its own snow cover, all untouched by the low overnight temperatures.
Surprisingly, since the Farmer's Markets opened earlier this month, more people are roaming the outdoor markets than are enjoying the more sheltered indoor ones. That makes me happy because the pop up store delivers so much more bang for the customers' buck when they can actually pet the yarn. 😀
Speaking of yarn, this week we will be focusing on sock yarns and merino roving.
