365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.

Where All The Greens Went
Day 253: My rug strip box was filled and overflowing into two large bags, so I figured it was time to make another batch of rag rugs, but I was desperately short of bright colours, particularly greens. I put out an all-points call, and friends came through. Suddenly, I found myself with an abundance of greens, and since it just happens to be my favourite colour, I decided to make the last of three rugs for myself. I'd already used some of the greens in the first two and thought I might run short if I stuck exclusively to green, so I threw in some brights to liven up the random design. Now I find myself short of greens again, and I'm still up to my eyeballs in grey, black and red. It's feast or famine, and I've just measured off a new warp (with Merry's help) for three more rugs.
