Mini blog

This is a short blog out of the normal rhythm ...  I just wanted to say hello and hope that everyone is ok and in good health. All is fine here. The restriction of movement (limited to one hour/day in a 1km radius from home, plus grocery shopping) was a bit of a shock to the system at first, as many of you will have experienced/are experiencing as well. But spring is unfolding in abundance and provides a beautiful and welcome distraction: delicate blossoms and leaves force their way out of buds to dance in the sunshine. Watching this takes the mind to a joyful place, even if just temporarily.

In the spirit of spring, I hope a new knot variation adds a light touch to your day. I was looking for further ways to highlight the multicolored feathers in my new scarf and wanted something similar to the Bib knot, but a little bit smaller and more contained. The solution is hardly groundbreaking, but the result is quite lovely and works really well: I reduced the size of the Bib by folding the scarf into a triangle twice:  Le Petit Bib was born!

Thank you all so very much for your comments on the previous blog. The camaraderie, humor and friendship that come from your words are incredibly uplifting. Stay well and safe xxx
