The colours in this selection are really lovely. Is the shawl made from Rowan yarn? You will have to post a photo of it when it's completed.

jaja Do not tell me it is another "trendy one!" Good. Everybody needs one!.
I did not recognize you yesterday when you were in the car. I was on my way to the Gym – believe it or not! I spent all my life avoiding physical activities and here I am going to the gym. :O
I like the composition of the pictures, good use of space and also you can mix it with other nice colours. I love doing that in my own pictures. Unless the picture is glorious and strong itself for that it needs to be on its own, if not, mixing it with other stuff is very ludic. Isn’t it?

Color Purple is on of my favorite movies, though never read the book. Enjoy...

well, how can it NOT be purple rain? as soon as i saw the title of this post, purple rain started playing on the record player in my head!

i loved the color purple, i read it when i was about 14.

To Janis: it's hard to please mothers in law!!!

Louise said...

You're so sweet! I can't help wondering how far a penny stamp would get you these days. Next door? To the end of the road? x

alessandra said...

to wsake: :) Oh great, thank you!

to Louise: probably the postman won't ever bother!!! At least here, were the postmen are so grumpy that don't even ring the bell to deliver you a parcel!!!

Francesca said...

I admire how you switch from knitting to crocheting!

alessandra said...

To Francesca: I get bored, so I always start two or three projects at the same time, in this way I (almost)always finish what I started! otherwise boredom prevail and projects lies unfinished and forgotten somewhere.
