A peek at the corner of the Rainbow Amanzi Throw I’m making for my 8 year old granddaughter. Her birthday is in April, I think I will have it finished by then. Anyone who knows the pattern will see that I have made some modifications – Jen Tyler’s designs encourage experimentation!
I’m enjoying these lively colours in the depths of Winter amd to offset the ‘noise’, I’m enjoying revisiting the book “Returning to Silence”.
It was published in 1988, I first read it, and loved it, in 1998 and now I’m enjoying it again. Like so many similar books, it is about coming back to the self, being present in the moment, knowing your peaceful centre, no matter what you are doing. I like the way it soothes me and takes me there again.
Meanwhile I keep crocheting these bright zingy colours!

She seemed pleased when she saw it. She chose the bright pink as her favourite colour, so I will do the last row in that.
