The shading is finicky, and I pull out and redo about 30% of it. I work on it folded so I don't need a big frame, but it makes mirroring the shading a bit trickier, so I have to spread it out from time to time to see how balanced I am keeping the shading.

I am using at least 8 different shades of yarn for the blues/purples in this stage.

Progress shot:

Grass is done. Now I need to roll some skeins into balls before starting the sky.

One day, when Apple comes with an electric bicycle, light electric vehicle or the meaningful contribution for #mobility of their choice, I hope this will make for a perfect keynote opening.

Current #rughooking progress:

I am pausing for a bit now because I need to inventory the colour options in my stash and then plan the background palette. I may need to grab a few skeins of #briggsandlittle blues and greens to finish it off.

I will be adding the stems in last with #embroidery.
