2016-04-25 The Letter U

This looks like a cozy place to climb up and read a book, doesn’t it?

It also looks like today’s letter, “U.”

My theme here at my Knoontime Knitting craft blog is Letterforms In Nature and the Built Environment. I’ll be exploring my daily round, looking for shapes in the natural world and built environment.

2016-04-23 The Letter T

I like signs, and I’ve taken snaps of these little ones before.  They’ve always spoken to me because of their size and content.  Not sure why.

Losing a little momentum due to this cold of mine, so today’s post is late.  Tomorrow is the letter U, which is for…  well, you’ll have to wait and see!

A Bit of a Stretch…

Knoontime Knitting

2016-04-22 The Letter S

You like how I did that with the title?  “S”tretch?  🙂

If you look closely and use your imagination, you can see the “S” in the fence links.

I had a heck of a time finding an S in a tree branch, and I have a cold, so I defaulted to my trusty fence.

T is much easier.  I found several possibilities, but you’ll have to wait ’til tomorrow to see.

2016-04-21 The Letter K

I walk by these every day and didn’t see them, really see them, until today.

Which figures, because the sky is all getting ready to storm and makes the shot look black and white.

Which is kind of fitting today, I suppose.  Rrrrright?

Right.

2016-04-20 The Letter Q

Okay, I agree, this is a stretch, but do you have any idea how hard it is to find branches that grow downward?

The plant with the large spatulate leaves is a rubber plant, which is where we got “chicle” from, or natural gum.

Poussez, Tirez

Knoontime Knitting

2016-04-19 Letter P

When I was young, I studied French.  One of the sets of stickers we had for the house was “Poussez,” for one side of the door, and “Tirez,” for the other.  They are pronounced POO-say and TEA-ray.  For some reason, those are two French words that I remember, to this day.

The other day when I was on a different bus from my usual route, I looked up and saw a P above me.  Voila.

C’est fini.

Tres bien.

🙂

And this was also on my bus route the other morning, on the other end at the terminus for the route.

The little spiky things are pigeon deterrents.

Paint the Fence!

2016-04-15 The Letter M

“Paint the fence!”  “Wax on!”  “Wax off!”

Thank you Karate Kid.

And today’s letter is…  M!  Ironically, this is the fence by which I stand every time I wait for the northbound bus near my house.  M’s all over the place!
