My apple tree is in full flower and it's full of happy bees! A big change from last week when I had to rescue a bumblebee from my chilly shed and it refused to sit on a flower but chose to sit on my hand - probably due to my body heat. It stayed there for a good ten minutes defrosting and having a drink of the sugar water I offered it (it licked my thumb and that feels so weird)
She drank two spoons of sugar water so was really thirsty/hungry! But enough of bees... on to the Spring Mystery SAL!
This is mine after part four. I'm really happy with the colours I chose even though the two greens occasionally blend together a bit.
Colours used this time:
- Colour A (DMC 445 on the pattern)
- Colour B (DMC 307 on the pattern)
- Colour C (DMC 368 on the pattern)
- Colour D (DMC 320 on the pattern)
- 20 - in Colour A
- 16 - in Colour B
- 40 - in Colour C
- 16 - in Colour D
You can find the pattern here
See you for the next part of the mystery in four hours!
I do not expect anyone to be able to be up to date at all times during the SAL - you need to eat and sleep at the very least so expect to be "behind" part - if not all - of the time! It's part of the nature of this type of SAL for this to happen, so being "behind" is the normal state of affairs. If you are a slow stitcher expect to finish "after" the SAL has "finished" - though tbh the SAL is always available and new people find the patterns on a regular basis so it's never really over.
On all social media sites the tag to use is: #SpringMysterySAL - let's make the world see what we are up to!
