Two Finishes and Our Recent Visitors

Lately I've been working on some dishcloths and actually finished a couple!


This one was a bit challenging.


This one is bigger than most. And that's why there are two red stripes since I though I might run out of the pink yarn. (I was right!) BTW, both patterns are Free on Ravelry.




On another note, we've had a few visitors lately in our yard.  For the first time in a while we've seen this guy and a bunny.


Bunny was just checking things out, but these two squirrels stop by daily for peanuts, and lately we've had another native squirrel visiting as well. That one is too shy still for posing.


Have a great week!

The butterfly dishcloth is really interesting. Lovely.

Do you know I haven't seen a bunny since we've moved to PA. When I lived here before bunnies were EVERYWHERE! Same with pheasants. We had pheasants in our very busy apartment complex. Haven't seen one yet and we have LOTS of wooded areas around us.

It’s such a delight to see wildlife in unexpected places. The deer that hang around my apartment complex aren’t disturbed when people to walk by them, but they are cautious. I haven’t seen bunnies in a couple of years because a lot died from blood disease.

I love seeing all your lovely knitting and crochet creations! Enjoy 'watching' your wildlife! I saw more wild animals at my house in Wisconsin than in the zoo somedays...LOL

I don't have a Google account or a URL so I don't know any way to comment except anonymously. Please Google whether or not peanuts are good for squirrels. You may be harming them. Nancy R

I saw a bunny the other day and I haven't seen one in years. It was a big fella too. When I mowed the other day I went down our path that leads into the woods with the mower and I've been seeing deer walking down the path to the yard to have a peek. My two least favorite visitors are a raccoon and a possum that show up every night to hang out in the front yard. They scare me to death when I take Pup out. That used to be The Mister's job but he can't get her up and down the stairs right now so it's on me. No fun there.

I get nervous when the squirrels come to the deck. They have chewed holes in the chair cushions and tried to eat the welcome mat. Very strange and a bit creepy.

You can never ever have too many dishcloths, they make the perfect small gift for someone. Your yard has been very busy!!

So cute!
There are a billion deer around here, though none in our yard (we are too far in town). We see herds of them when we go for our dinner drives through.

Naturally, I have tonnes of squirrels, since I put peanuts out for them and the blue jays.

But until last hallowe'en, I hadn't seen one bunny! Now we have one that visits our yard at least once a week. I should probably put out a treat for him too.

I like the dish cloths! The wild life is so fun to have as visitors as long as they don't eat what they are NOT supposed to eat!
