yellow

Lately, come about mid afternoon, the vivid blue Winter sky is cloaked in grey. Sometimes there is rain but more often than not the clouds play cat and mouse with the sun. When beams of light finally peak through, a golden glow is cast about our home. At first I deemed it eerie, reminiscent of creaking floorboard and dusty candelabra filled mansions. But now this yellow haze imbues my world with a warmth, a serenity.

It has tuned my eye into luscious shades of mustard and ochre. The fire work pops of wattle on the road side, delicate rattan baskets  filled with blocks and shells and snippets of my babies' worlds, and earthy yarn that begged to be brought home with me. With still a good few nights of snuggled under blanket, tea sipping, knitting kind of weather left in this season I might just cast on a yellow inspired tea leaves cardigan*   for my very own.

What colour is inspiring you?

* Tania's beautiful tea leaves cardigan gave me the push to cast on a "me" sized project.
