Tangerine Dreams and Candied Orange Peel - #6 of 365

Candied Orange Peel (or any citrus peel) is something my Mum made every Christmas. However, she made us all crazy with her preparations as she did too much. I haven't ever made this before, but I have been missing it, so I decided that I would since we had the oranges to hand.



Simple syrup and orange peel, boil, boil, boil. Easy peasy and yummy too. I shall dip these in dark chocolate after they have set.



I am wearing this scarvelette which is loosely based on Ysolda Teague's Damson. I have chosen to call this scarvelette, Tangerine Dreams for obvious reasons.

On the Rocks - #4 of 365

This is really going to be a quickie. Spent the whole afternoon at Traffic Court with the kiddo.

This is Rebecca and me at Garden of the Gods here in Colorado Springs. This photograph is of me and Rebecca as we were getting ready to take our shawl "batwing" photo. It is "the" Rebecca from whom I am borrowing the idea of 365 in 365...

I finished the Tangerine Dream Scarf based on Ysolda Teague's Damson. I need to block it but will wait til daylight and slightly warmer temperatures. I am currently working on the Patons Classic shawl of my own design but which is loosely based on Damson now, which is for 10 in 2010.
