BunnyHotel

Our temperature early today.

Ooops... Just in time!

SummerCottage was closed up last night.

BunnyHotel was opened yesterday.

There's two doors to keep the frost outside.

Today morning MyGranny was invited to see the angoras. For sure she knows -with that life experience- what is a hare. These definately are not hares; so they don't interest her much at all. To her -despite they jump like hares- they smell like pets. They smell like humans. What smells like humans should never be touched without permission. So, they can not have anything to do with hare hunting. Booooring!!!

(Never let you dog alone or free with your bunnies, the dogs can get inspired by their hunting instinct. We have let her to meet bunnies several times because she is a real hunter -aged 14½years- and works with real wild game. By this age she knows the rules. But we still don't leave them in the same room without human and security.)

It was a wild night and Lulu was happy to meet the same old familiar waste bucket with the same old smells on the morning when I went to clean their boxes.

Lulu and Viola share the double sized box. The doorway can be closed up between two boxes if needed.

Rasputin lives next to the girls. It definately is the right place for him. His eco is a bit bigger than himself what comes to the other bunnies.

Gynter lives on the other side behind Rasputin. He is extremely satisfied in his own corner with his best friend MrMirror who doesn't bully him at all.

The boys had "who lives where" fight but because there is strong net between the boxes no damages were done and now they know both of them stay on their own sides, so they don't avoid or attac the edge net.

The boxes and nets seem out weak and light but they are strong and robust. BunnyHotelBoxes have been built up to keep the angoras inside and the wild outside. 

On the right side is girls' old hutch which was in their SummerCottage but was taken into BunnyHotel. Free room available for more angora rabbits. :)

Autumn garden

The autumn has arrived into MyGarden.

But thats all right. I just love it. 

I know the summers are full of colours but so are autumns too. I usually don't like red, but all autumn red shades I love.

This red comes from far away but still it fits well into MyWorld.

The shades of yellow definately are the autumn world.

Autumn or winter never depresses me. I just love these seasons.

Despite the warm season is behind there is still some delicates in my garden.

But to be honest; it was creepy cold evening to pick up some berries for my packed lunch for tomorrow. It blows from the north and makes the frost. Well, I still am fine because hot sauna is waiting for me.

The autumn is arriving also into BunnyBarn.

That's why BigBoys have been building and finishing BunnyHotel. Not much work left before the angoras can move in.

I have spent my Sunday enjoying about the lovely companionship of dear M. from the Farm by writting a letter for her, admiring the last flowers dear B. sent from south and staying healthy by the apples dear L. has carried into our house for several times. I feel myself so priviledged of having such a great friends around me despite some of them live totally far away. 
 
I woke up at 5am so I had also time to crochet a bit my YogaMat.
 
I love apple green.

My YogaMat is pink so pink does just fine with apple green.

Pink and apple green crocheting

Despite of the busy day I had some moments with my CarryOn project on the sofa. It is bag for my new yoga mat. I need two YogaMatBags. Blue-white is for my old one and this pink-apple green will be for my brand new one. Both are my own design.

The shape begins to form out.

The bottom is green...

The yarn is -against all my habits- 100% polyacryl. No wool or other natural fibres at all. It is Schachenmayr's Micro Grande (100g = 200m).

Apple green autumn

 Yes, it is autumn and the first frost mornings were up here already. But -to be honest- I have been longing for cold temperatures and cosy chilly moments.

I have started new carry on project. Oops, it's pink and apple green. And for Me&MySelf!!! No, I have not hit my head... later on you'll see these are the right shades. ;)

I needed to shorten my new jeans. It is amazing how long they make the legs to be! I doubt if anyone has such long skinny legs. Who is 14cm taller than I with similar weight???? Who really is such a zero size super model???

But, most angry I am because of it how they make the seams and machines these days. Modern sewing machines for home made purposes are too weak to cope with thick seams if you sew them in the correct way; folded like in the picture above.

That's why I do it in this way. First I neaten the edge and then fold it just once like this. This is how it looks inside...

...and this is how it looks at front side. No one notices the difference. Meaning the difference that it is not made in the old fashion school styled. The teacher said they need to be folded twice but modern machines just can't handle it! So, why not fold it just once if the edge is neaten?!

From an end to another

Here it finally is: BlanketNo2 (my own design). No, no no, don't rush. It is not finished yet. The middle part is finished. I still need to do the outer edges. Oh yeah, I have already started.

Here they are; the left end...

...and the right end. Both with opened loops.
