Here I post about my knitting, my dogs, my garden and other things that keep me busy. Hundgestrickt is a word that I invented combining the German words for "dog" and for "knit" making it similar to "handgestrickt" for handknit (think of "houndknit") as that's what this blog is mostly about :-)

Good morning
... to a lovely Sunday.
I'm up early and out with the dogs and thought I could share these beautiful fragile poppies in the wheat field with you.
Have a great day!

More spring in the garden
Our lilac does really well in the front garden. It was bought as a tiny plant about 25 cm high and is now 4 years a bush as big as I am. And has a great scent and beautiful white blossoms. I had to learn to love the white because it was bought as a light yellow.
The burgundy Irises again, looking very pink here.
And the white "hedge rose", gorgeously open and unfilled.
Have a great weekend!

May garden
View from the back door
The white hedge rose
The perennials bed
Burgundy, brownish Irises, and the peonie in the foreground
strawberries and currents (black, red and white)
the veggie bed with mangetouts, garlic, echalottes, salad, radish, arugula, and the clematis climing up the shed, left to it goji berry and blueberry, under them wild garlic
the cold frame with salad, radish, arugula
the view from rambling rose at the shed to the house, happy doggies eating bones included
chives and rosemary
Things have changed a bit since these pictures were taken, the lawn has been worked on, aired, fertilized, resown, and we have exchanged a few perennials as we had some accidents in cold/dry weather.
Now that the Ice Saints are over I will set up my little green house-shelf during the weekend and bring down all the baby plants from the craft room
Thanks for coming over!

Good Morning
and have a great Sunday!
We have a blue sky at 7 degrees Celcius - I guess that's actually what is called the Ice Saints.
(More on those later.)

Fun at the pond
Myrtille trying to convince herself that she really wants that stick out there,
while Bisou is already shaking that wet stuff off :-)
and Dingo is thinking of his younger days when he was such a strong swimmer?
Another unusually day is promised for today...
Thanks for coming over!
