Tulip Time


Ready for a visit to Paycocke's House?  You enter by the cartway at the side.


Multicoloured tulips set alongside old entranceways.


The wisteria in full swing above the door to Reception.


Tubs of tulips against the backdrop of the garden.



And my most recent finished item.


This is a pattern called Red Letter Day, and I could see this being worn for a special event.  Complex closed loop cables run down the sleeves and the back, so that the whole effect has the air of a dress uniform ornamented with braids.  It was curiously straightforward to knit, and is a great fit.

Your photos convey every image in my imagination of springtime in England. Love the pic of you posing in your pretty sweater. I agree: great design.
