New non-gardening hobby that is less sweaty than summer knitting!

It just needs a lot of end weaving and blocking.
It also was fricking hard to knit

This year will be a "Shovel Pruning" year where I remove the roses that don't like it here.
This is my Master List...some have already been removed but I suffer by my success :)

Half of these are arriving in the next day or so. It snowed on Monday and should do so again tonight.

Secret weapon if you want to keep squirrels away from your tulips.

You are not alone. I am almost twice your age and have made a tiny bit of urban-paradise on my lot. Despite being a solitary sort, I am now popular since people come to visit, just to sit in it. Just dug a tiny pond and I am hoping from frogs and dragonflies.

This week on my needles:
I call one "crayola" the other "waves".
|Knitting one for a good friend, the other for her rescue's auction.

My current mantle is for an artist friend (who also gave me my kittens). I am calling it "Crayola".

Great!
I dug a small pond last year and am hoping frogs will find it.

Third completed "No Rules" piece. Knitting in lace stitches speeds it up substantially.

Finally got germination of my native Ironweed.

Almost done my "practice pieces" going forward the pieces will be done for my various charities to auction (retirement means I can't really donate the $$$ I would wish).

If I have to dig up my rose garden to plant a victory garden, so be it!

All the beloved animal images are keeping me sane and grounded during this winter of my discontent.
Here is my favourite photo of my current cat, Sol and his late and very missed brother, Sunny (the silly one).

Can Canada join the EU?
I'm getting a tad nervous when I realize I have the US South of us and Russia the "other South" of us.
