Morning Walk in the Fog

 

Firstly I let the chooks out of their fox proof house.  Mr Roderick Rooster is always ready and in a hurry to get breakfast.

 
The dogs and I walk up the road.  Thankfully the road has been recently graded.  We are at the forgotten end of Ballarat.  I'm OK with a gravel road but it does need more care and attention.







A great way to start the day.

New Pattern

 
Today I'm working on a new hat pattern combining 8 ply yarn and my hand spun chunky yarn.  Almost finished!!

 
My friendly flock on my new computer.  I have no excuse any more about how difficult it is to blog.  I can't believe how fast the photos loaded  Makes life so much easier.  I'll be back later with a photo of the finished hat.

Knitting Projects



New mittens for the chilly mornings have been listed on the website.



And I am knitting some diamonds.  These will eventually be a baby blanket for one of Brie's friends.  Brie is doing most of the knitting but I'm sure she will be grateful for a little help.

More of the Farmyard


Our ducks are growing.  Guess they are teenagers now. They are still a bit flighty so I can't get a photo of them swimming in their bright blue clam shell swimming pool.


Hurtle likes to visit the chooks, ducks and sheep on his morning walk.  I noticed today one on the chooks chasing him.  Hurtle seemed most offended.

Roderick


This the handsome Roderick with one of his girls.  He is growing bigger every day. Roderick was a surprise addition to our poultry family.  I had purchased hens but Roderick was no hen!! We have a very gentle natured rooster.


And this is "cow"  She belongs to a neighbour and we fill the water troughs for her and her friends every day.

Now I must get back to doing what I have to do today.  Label yarn and list on the website.
