Telephone Pole Koozy Part 2

So it is complete. The culmination of several months of croqueting and lots of scrap yarn has ended in a telephone pole koozy. I hope it makes it.

Under The Cover Of Light

This isn't really under the cover of night, but seeing as how plants need all the light they can get, I'll give it a pass. I feel like creating life out of dirt and little specs of seed is a kind of miracle that all of us are capable of but few of us take the time to do. I guess it comes from being a farmers daughter, but this need to get my hands dirty every year is an addiction. I think the hardest part of playing God is thinning the plants so the stronger ones have room to grow and flourish. I've always had a tendency to try and keep them all alive, and so they all suffer a little. There might be a metaphor in there somewhere but I'm not sure.

I think I've drawn or painted this face of various designs about a thousand times over the course of my artistic life. It's kinda the good ol' standby when I need to create but my brain won't let me get too creative. It's pretty but hackneyed at this point.
