On the paths, the avenues!

Mouse Piep at the Veluwe

Early last year I was asked to make a design for the YLA box (the Dutch Crochet subscription box), Mouse Piep. My husband and I happened to have a weekend planned on the Veluwe and Muis Piep joined us. Franklin, too, wormed his way into my bag to go out with me. The first day we had was some cloudy weather, but it have become quite nice pictures.

The second day we took pictures of Mouse Piep in the forest. Fortunately the weather was good and sunny. I took an extra plastic bag with me so my knees wouldn’t get wet, kneeling on the ground. It was wonderfully quiet. There were very few people outside.

But as you can see, my husband sometimes takes a picture of me, in action! Struggling with crooked surfaces or a branch that’s in the way!

Alblasserbos

In this neighborhood we have the Alblasserbos. The Alblasserbos is located in the southwest of the Alblasserwaard between Papendrecht, Oud-Alblas and Wijngaarden. This so-called polder forest was built 25 years ago by human hands and in the meantime has grown into a beautiful mature forest with beautiful thick trees. A nice place to walk and to take pictures of some creations.

This time my Mushrooms Gnome, the mushrooms Ama and Nita and Ferre were allowed to go on the road. We also came across a beautiful knotted willow, as you can see from this picture with the Mushroom Gnome.

Sometimes we came across some nice places that were a bit too high for my little person, then it is always convenient to have my husband around.
