Sheep at the Window

Knitting, doodling, raising baby

The amazing shrinking playground

Spent the weekend in Jerusalem with my cousin and her husband – we decided to go for a walk in the area where my grandparents used to live before they died.

It was strange to be there again (last time I was there was about 12 years ago). The building looks pretty much the same, and the playground next to it still has the same big stone "donkey" that was once very hard to climb and is now as tall as my knee. I had no idea stone could shrink under normal conditions. :)

I took a lot of picture, and my 2 favourites are:

The sprinkler we used to drink out of when we were kids, 20 years ago. It’s still the same one.


Me on the monkey-bars.
Ok, so technically I didn’t take this picture, but it’s hard to take pictures when you’re upside down and your face is turning red in an alarming rate..

  • About the sheep

    My name is Ayelet. I'm a designer, illustrator, mom to baby Toam (born in May 2008), knitter, somewhat-crafty, and mostly trying to figure out how everything fits together.

    I try to live ecologically but sensibly. I'll recycle plastic for the rest of my life if you promise to never take away my clothes dryer.

    This blog was given to me as a gift from my husband, Ez, on my 27th birthday and I've been using it since then as a sort of think tank/storage space for my thoughts, ideas, illustrations and crafty projects.
