Knitted Dreams Of Spring

I know it´s coming every year. And I wait for it every winter. Finally, spring is just around the corner. And with that, hope of summer and strawberries.

I´m so excited about this that I decided to speed things ahead. So here they are: My knitted strawberries of wool. Who said that strawberries don´t freeze? LOL!!!

Anyway, they kept me warm knitting them. And I enjoyed it so much that I most certainly will knit a lot more. The next ones will be with long stems and leaves for bookmarks. I found a free pattern on Ravelry for them - thank you so much dear knitter whoever you are. You can find the pattern here.

Expecting something nice, like spring, is so good. In fact, I believe that it lighten up frozen minds. And the thought of fresh strawberries with cream on a hot summer day brings out the sun. We just need to find our own "strawberries".

You know what I mean - keep on going. And expect summer, sun and strawberries.

    These are just the cutest darn things I have ever seen. I love strawberries. Red is my favorite color. I can just see these in a little colander in the kitchen. So cute.

    Wish I could knit. Sadly I have 2 left hands. The teachers gave up on me and the knitting.

    A beautiful share this morning. Country hugs and much love, Sherry
