#midst unend

I’m so happy to welcome Omelette to our family! He loves to nom on flowers and play in the ferns and generally get himself as messy as possible. Molly wasn’t too sure what to make of Omelette at first, but he now tolerates Omelette’s presence, especially if they are just soaking up the spring unshine.

I knew as soon as I saw this yarn (Lion Brand Landscapes Renewed Yarn Sherbet) it would be perfect for Omelette’s rosy maple moth colours. He’s entirely made without a plan or pattern. My first attempt was… disturbing… (think chest-burster) but I’m pretty happy with how he turned out! When starting to brush out his tail and ‘mane’ I was disappointed to discover that the yarn base is a mesh tube instead of strands, but the resulting texture seems very accurate to the description of Omelette’s pupating state 😂

Just grab a few common items from our pantry and we’re ready to entertain in style.
