PINK SPRING IN CANADA

Trees and bushes have so many colours in May. But pink is a popular one.
Favourite tulips!



Walk around your neighbourhood!

Rows of trees- pink!

Our favourite park with those beautiful trees lining the edges.


The trees lined Yonge Street too!


Even a beautiful bush on the street.

                   The tulips by the Library with its pink building are always lovely!

SHADES OF BLUE-A CROCHET BOY'S BLANKET

Using 3 different stitches as well as crocheting into the back of a stitch and as many shades of blue wool available, a little bed blanket was made for one of my grandsons.
Striped blankets are an easy way to use up those 1/2 balls that need using. My daughter also needed me to fix 5 little baby blankets that the kids use. They pull the strands or little holes develop from uses. So Nana fixed them all so they could be used in the car, at the cottage or snuggling while watching TV. Although I have made crocheted clothes items, blankets are always a hit. There is no need to measure- one size fits all. So what is next- well my littlest granddaughter needs a longer blanket. Shades of pink is under way!

CANADA HAS LOTS OF PINK IN THE SPRING

Our street has houses with pink flowering trees.

Pink trees line the park where the grandchildren play sometimes.

Of course, my favourite local building is pink all year round. The Richmond Hill Central Library is a wonderful example of how pink can be used. Do you like the colour pink? Nature has a nice way of using it doesn't she?

FEBRUARY-THE MONTH WITH A HEART

February is the short little month stuck in the dark months of winter. Heart and Stroke Foundation has its drive for funds. Valentines Day with all the heart symbols-especially the chocolate ones makes it fun for children and lovers. Colours of red and pink light up the dark colours that people insist on wearing. Oh February-you give us the heart to continue!
