Sabline (Arenaria grandiflora L.) has small white flowers erected on a long pedicel. They have inspired me the stiches pattern of the sweater.

Stachys name refers to Stachys bysantina, a white silvery plant whose leaves, stem and corolla are covered with a fur-like hair coating. It is also named lamb’s ear.

Muscari, also known as grape hyacinth or bluebells, is a bulbous plant often growned in the garden. At spring it produces dense spikes of blue flowers. There are about 40 species in the genus. In Dordogne where I live we protect Muscari motelayi.

Turdus genus includes many species of blackbirds and thrushes, two loving birds. There is a large mulberry tree in my garden. A few years ago, a blackbird was sheltering there.
