Apples and Oranges

Yesterdays pattern is going to be embroidered on the jeans fabric and with the green and yellow yarn. The heart shaped clover in green and the rest in yellow. The only thing I need now is a way to transfer my drawing on to the fabric and a sharp large needle, then I'm good to go! :)
On the small paper attached to every bundle of yarn is a description on what plant, herb or tree leaf is used to colour the yarn. We used both white and grey yarn so dandelion has coloured the white yarn yellow and the grey yarn green, and also the same for horsetail (sv: fräken), goldenrod (sv: gullris), willow herb (sv: mjölkört). Mr Google gave me the translations for these, so I can't guarantee the accuracy of the translations. :)

Today's been a bit warmer outside. The ice is melting in the street and turning into mush, but it'll freeze during the night again. On a positive note, there'll be less ice tomorrow anyway because some of it turns into water and drains away! :)
