ducky

every month my etsy fibre group chooses a theme for a challenge (a challenge to come out of your box and make a theme related item that you wouldn't have thought of on your own). this month's theme is "just ducky". in newfoundland a very common term for endearment is "my ducky". "duckish" is the time of day between day and night - when light and bright turns to dull and dark. but my choice was "jemima puddle-duck" from beatrix potter's "tale of tom kitten" which was my daughter's favourite potter story when she was little. she referred to the book as "wa-wa-wa" before she could speak because she loved the picture of the ducks waddling down the path in the kitten's clothes. this skein is now listed in my etsy shop.
