Currently (11-02-16)


Knitting... An Ugly Christmas Sweater. I finished the body of my sweater and then it sat for about a week. I tried it on and sadly decided it was too small and ripped back basically the whole thing. I've made good progress though, I'm hoping to work on this a lot while Andrew and I are in Niagara Falls this weekend.

I finished both my Statford Socks and the socks for my father in law and now I am working with some yarn I dyed with my mom last summer for my February socks. I decided to make one pair of socks (for myself) a month this year... Am I crazy?

Andrew and I purchased all of the Star Wars movies so naturally I cast on The Force Awakens Hat to knit while I watch them (I'm watching them for the first time, by the way, we started with Episode 4). This is my first time attempting colour work and I love it! I finished this hat last Tuesday and I finished another one for Andrew. I'm actually selling them on my etsy store if you are interested.

Spinning... I received this super nice mohair and wool blend for Christmas and it was a dream to spin with. I dyed it purple and now I just need to find something to make with it! Also, when you aren't allowed to get a pet in your apartment, you naturally start a cactus collection... right?



Crocheting... Still working on my sock yarn blanket. I think I have almost 10 squares. Progress on this has been slow. I'm losing a bit of steam.

Reading... Yes Please! by Amy Poehler. I'm still really liking the book. I've been trying to practice reading and knitting at the same time with my Kobo.

Drinking... Peppermint tea mostly. Roll up is back so Andrew and I will probably be visiting Tim Horton's A lot more

Cooking... Skillet mac and cheese! This recipe is delicious and super easy to whip up.
