Happy and ever-so-slightly bonkers days are near. Here’s a sneak preview of materials for the housey yarn-bombing. (There are knitted pigeons, too.) The stripes are to be sewn around the railings of the tower balcony.
The big sew-up/reveal will be in a few days’ time, but I’m away from home at the moment, visiting the put-upon parents in their home on the English-Welsh border. They’re moving soon, and I’ll miss the walk up the track by their house to see this:-
…As admired by my mum:-
The tree is a maybe-400-year-old oak, its trunk gnarled and thick.
I’ll miss it.

I can see why you’ll miss that view! Beautiful! Can’t wait to see your finished yarn bombing ☺
The Twisted Yarn says
Thank you. 🙂

They’re leaving that oak tree?! I hope they’re moving somewhere at least that pretty.
The Twisted Yarn says
‘Tis a pity they can’t bring the tree. They’re moving nearer to us, so not quite so pretty.
Kate says
What beautiful views that they are leaving behind. I hope they are moving somewhere equally as lovely! Also I love the bright colours for your yarn bombing! x
The Twisted Yarn says
Thank you. They’re moving closer to us and no, their new environs won’t be quite this pretty.
Gallivanta says
But you will make them prettier with your yarn bombing skills. 🙂

The Twisted Yarn says
Thank you.
jenpedwards says
Oooohhhh, that’s quite a tease for your house yarn bombing! Can’t wait to see! I do think it would be hard to leave a place so lovely.
The Twisted Yarn says
Thank you. I keep adding extra bits for the yarn-bombing, so it’s still not finished….
gladeridercrafts says
That view is absolutely gorgeous! Hopefully they’ll end up somewhere with a nice view again
The Twisted Yarn says
Probably not as nice as this, sadly. Ah well, at least they’ve had a few years there.
The Little Room of Rachell says
I’m not surprised – what a gorgeous view and old, old oak. If it could talk it would. no doubt, have some tales to tell….
The Twisted Yarn says
Yes, it’s easy to feel connected to the past when you’re strolling through this landscape.
