High biodiversity in our garden, here's two small patches of grass :) We are very considerate about when, where & how we cut the grass. These days it's only along the paths & under the trees, the rest will grow tall and gets cut alternately during the season.

A +400 year old dress (dated 1623) found in a crypt in Sibiu, is now being restored and temporarily part of an exhibition at the National Brukenthal Museum www.turnulsfatului.ro/2026/05/07/o...

I'm really keen to try something new and knitting a Moebius shawl seems to be it 🙂 This is the 2nd attempt, with a proper loop but the stitch pattern not quite right, so 🐸 Three time's a charm? #lightitupMAL #knitting 🧶

Finally a use for the wooden left-over planks we've saved all these years! I'm replacing a step and found just the plank I needed 😅

Two of my favourites for #MeMadeMay and #ShowMeYourKnits The cotton tunic that I wear whenever 😁 & my asymmetric shawl knitted from hand-spun merino wool - a gift from down under 🥰 Now... I received more lovely wool 🧶, so I'm on a quest for what to make with that 😉 #knitting #sewing

It is still too cold to replant the tomato seedlings 🍅, so they're acclimatising outside during the day. But the peas & beetroots don't seem to mind freezing point temps 🌱 Happy Beltane! 🌞

Hello sheep with lambs 🐑

Sun bow 🌞

The strawberry patch and apple trees look promising 🤞

A forest of small beauties 💚

A photo from the garden today 🍃 "Apple Blossoms" (No Bird) #photography #nature

It's loud outside while I absorb some morning sun rays. Bees, birds, wind. And lambs in the background. Have a lovely Sunday 💚

I spoke a lot of dutch at the vernissage. That's been a while 🙃🙂

@bsky.app and all haters This is not ok

Does sewing count for #FOFriday ? Because I finished the linen tunic today 😁

Making linen tunics is good for my happiness 😁 #sewing 🧶

This orchid stopped me in my tracks today ✨

Absolutely! 🐝🦋🍄🦎🦔 #scytheforlife

The most wonderful time of the year is when our trees blossom 🤩 The next most wonderful time is when we collect the fruit 😉 We have decades old plum trees (traditional variety) and are trying to renew by planting young trees in between. The old roots still retain water in the soil & prevent erosion

Hello ladybug! 🐞

A friend from our community passed away. Too young. We knew it would happen, and it hurts nevertheless. They were kind, thoughtful & well-spoken. Our conversations were humbling. Worries matter. Choose your battles wisely. RIP dear friend 🤍

Köszönjük Magyarország!

Useless

Seen on our walk today :)

Argh... Snow... I really hope this won't affect the blossoms 🤞 Every. Single. Year.

Hello turtles :)

Me at the market today, not selling much but I made new friends 🙂

Socks for #showmeyourknits I tried out the diamond ✨ heel, but am not a fan of the sock's final shape. Might be suitable for feet with high instep? Out & about today as well, as I got myself a spot at the Easter market in the neighbouring town & it's already sunny 🌞 Have a good Sunday everyone!

You'll find me at the local Easter market today :) With knitting organisers, bags & summer hats. And of course some of my knits ✨ #knitting 🧶

Covid is still here, and no vaccins available #fail

What does it mean to sew a Romanian blouse? It takes patience and is healing for the soul :) 🧶

It's white outside, and this time it's not snow ;)

I have chosen my #Latvian Māra's Cross gloves for this week's #ShowMeYourKnits colourwork The symbol guards, blesses & brings happiness 🤍 #knitting 🧶

It's that time of year! ✨ There is frogspawn in our pond :) 🐸

Ticking items off of our to-do list. Finally 🙃

I found a little yarn shop in town and they had this lovely yarn, so here we go again 😅 #knitting #wipwednesday 🧶

Recommend! 🙂

I doubt that will grow Marigolds 🙃

The fruit trees are showing signs of spring :)

On my needles: another lace scarf 😉 #ShowMeYourKnits 🧶

A song on the radio reminded me of a cousin who I only know from early childhood and not with the best memories. The recent news of their death saddened me anyway. Not sure if it's grief for other ones lost, or for a past that's now gone forever. RIP

Spring has sprung and we've got lots of garden work to do. SO is pruning trees, I'm collecting sticks & sorting them for wood chipping. I emptied the compost bin, replanted tomato seedlings, and want to plant peas 🫛 And, I spotted a bright yellow, busy bee with pollen on both legs 🐝

We stepped out into the city and it almost felt like spring 🌷

We've got a visitor 🐸

In local tradition, a trinket with red/white thread is given to loved ones at the start of March, which they then wear until the first blossoms appear :) "Mărțișor Dragon" #synthart #DragonTuesday 🐉✨

On a quick trip to #Tucson, Phil pauses to get rid of that gross plastic thing sitting in front of the stately #saguaro #cactus. Comment with a picture of a piece of trash you cleaned up in your neighborhood, and Phil will reply with a selfie and personalized words of congratulation 🧢🧹

Fijne lente Happy spring O primăvară frumoasă 💕 🤍

Today #ShowMeYourKnits is a reminder that we need to make beautiful things, protect joy, support each other, even (especially) when things are bad. #knitting is resistance, care, sanity & seeing it on display weekly lifts my heart. Show me your LACE this week, you amazing, talented people ❤️ 🧶

When this pandemic started, for me knitting proved to be resistance, care, sanity - as Liv wrote so beautifully 🤍 for this weeks #ShowMeYourKnits I was a novice then, still am, so when I finished my first lace top I really was over the moon 🥰 #knitting 🧶 😷

From today's walk 🤍
