Winter Summed Up
Saturday 29th November 2014

Fennel against the winter sky today. I like leaving the dead flower heads on fennel and sea holly. Very structural and the birds love it too.
Today, I had an exciting planning meeting. About knitting. 2015 will be good.
In the meantime, we have to get through winter. I hate the cold, and the wet. But I love the ideal of winter and its festivals and celebrations. This image is the ideal. In my planning meeting, it struck me (for the eleventy-fourth time) that as someone who loves sunshine and hot weather, it’s odd that I almost always design in the chilly, cool, wintry colour spectrum and draw most of my inspiration from bleak, spare, cold images.
