Snow Inspiration

a basket of snow-dusted allium heaads

Like most designers, I take my inspiration partly from nature – how I’d love to be able to knit something as beautiful, wintery and ethereal as this image of a basket of allium seed heads in my snowy garden, collected in the summer and now all frosted.  And what a great value plant it is:  first the slowly developing flower buds, then the frankly very show-off-ski flowers and finally the skeletal seed heads.

    Wow that is really stunning – nature is the ultimate designer isn’t it?
