Although at first glance it looks like the roving on my clothes line is the only color in the February. landscape, but that seems not tot be true. Here in western. North Carolina, the early spring and winter are in competition. I took a walk around my yard and found many more shades of green. 
When I look closely there are lots of tiny splashes of color. But looking closer is the key. When I take a moment, I can admire the snow drops. These tiny flowers that are a reminder that spring can't be far away. They are so cute, even without any snow to help them show off.
It won't be long before the daffodils are blooming . With our frequent warm spells, these bulbs take advantage of sunny days to get a head start. And with Mardi Gras just a few days away, the Lenten Rose has begun to begun to bloom.Today was chilly and breezy but with the moist feeling that feels like spring is coming soon. Last year I was so late getting the early spring veggies in, that I didn't even bother with peas and spinach. That won't happen this year. The bed is already prepped and waiting.
The recent dye activity is to fill a good sized order for an upcoming felting class. I want to be sure that the students have plenty of choices and I don't mind having extra dyed fiber around.
