A weekly feature on the blog, NOT Knit by Nat highlights great patterns by budding designers on Ravelry
Trekking
through the woods is quickly becoming our favourite past time up at the
cottage. It’s not an intense or long
hike by any means, but it’s perfect for the kids to feel “enchanted” and
juuuuuust long enough that mama starts to think “are we going the right way??”. With the flood levels high this spring
season in Ontario cottage land, our usual trickle of a creek was a full fledged spring that involved balancing across some fallen trees to get across. You can see my fearless explorer in the
corner there leading the way. It is a
moment I won’t soon forget. I also won’t
forget the piles of moose droppings along the path.
One which was nearly steaming in front of our very eyes. I don’t have to be a professional trail blazer to know that
a big moose was very close by! Deer and
turkeys are plentiful in our area, but a moose is quite extraordinary!
To commemorate our elusive moose
encounter, this week’s NKBN creation is a smart little Moose Chart by Eveline. Maybe I should knit up some moose trail markers for our next walk??!!
