[MONA x +] scarf

My [MONA x +] scarf.  

Crocheted as we drove to Hobart for opening of [MONA x +] a couple of weekends ago.

No pattern - it just grew, and found a life of it's own, as I stared out the window and lost myself in the scenery, and the quiet, and my thoughts.

It's so pretty, I must try and write the pattern down, one day.

It will always remind me of beautiful weekend we had - the amazing [MONA x +] experience, wonderful friends, and the bluest of skies...

....as blue as the soft cotton yarn I pulled from my stash as we headed out the door x

[12] listen

"If you're listening, if you're awake to the poignant beauty of the world, your heart breaks regularly. In fact, your heart is made to break, it's purpose is to burst open again and again so that it can hold evermore wonder."

~ Andrew Harvey

Recently I was asked by a beautiful person, what my favourite sounds were.... in that moment, I was surprised when I found it difficult to answer, i'd never actually taken the time to consciously make note of the sounds that make me smile. Since then, i've made list of my most favourite to share.

the sound of......

[rain] falling on the roof,  a [heart] beating, a crackling [fire], walking through [leaves] on the ground, the silence as [snow] falls, [waves] as they break on the shore at night time, [thunder], leaves [sighing] as wind rushes through the tree tops, the sound of a [baby] feeding from it's mothers breast, the watery [quiet] when I slide down deep underneath the surface of a bath.

They are mine.  I'd love to know yours..... x
