An Iconic Kiwi Christmas Tree

The Pohutakawas are all out and blossoming around Auckland. 
They seem extra red this year and there are dozens lining the roads
These pics are from one in the front garden



And in crocheting news, a couple of starfish wash-cloths from a retro pattern. 
I'm celebrating my pattern reading prowess :-)

    Same here Gill - I've just noticed this week the red hue everywhere I go!
    Loving those dish cloths - very cool, hope you're going to add these to your on-line shops?

    I've sent a few to a friend in Wellington who has a soap boutique, might see how they go in a B&M shop, just for a change :-)
