I love reflections! This is a puddle on the road where we walked on Christmas Day – very close to darkness so fuzzy and unclear but the water was still so the reflection is still quite distinct.
In knitting Fair Isle, the designs are often very attractive when reversed, and Felix Ford used several ideas like this in her lovely new book, The Domestic Soundscape – see here. And here is a preview of some designs on which we are working for a (less than usually naff) seasonal pullover.
Here are some more photo’s, of the wonderful Marie Antoinette farm at Rambouillet, where I was lucky enough to visit earlier this year when attending the World Congress of Coloured Sheep in Paris, France.
The first of those above was almost too clear and still, so the second shows a bit more of the surroundings, just to prove it is indeed a reflection!
This is the picture-book farm of which we can all dream! Where Rambouillet Merino sheep can safely graze and all the world is beautiful – which is what we wish everyone for 2015! And which we hope our newly freed patterns will help to provide.
