Major Seeding Day
There will be no knitting activity until deep winter. In the meantime, wooden knitting needles make great seeders! If a hole is needed, it is easy to poke the correct depth. Hardly any seeds we're planting go deeper than a 1/4" and some rest on top... Then you wet the tip of the needle and you can pick up one to as many seeds as needed per plug and when they touch the damp soil, they release and voila! Seeding requires a lot of our concentration and not talking to each other as we are counting in our heads and trying to keep track of dark brown specks of seed that are the same color as the dark brown soil mix...
