SELF CARE IN BABY STEPS - YOGA BY ADRIENE

SELF CARE IN BABY STEPS – YOGA BY ADRIENE

Hello lovely people! While we are all yearning for spring to arrive here in the northern hemisphere, it seems we have a final bout of King Winter coming,  in the shape of another fierce and freezing Eastern front, bringing yet more snow and sleet and sub-zero temperatures this weekend. I do hope my birthday is going to have a few rays of sunshine, but I will settle for dry weather. Fingers…

Work-in-Progress Wednesday | Reagan & The Beast

Work-in-Progress Wednesday | Reagan & The Beast

When I wrote about working on Intersect last week, I was actually suffering from “almost-nothing-on-the-needles” syndrome. It’s a bad thing, especially when working on something that needs full concentration. One of my favourite pastimes is binge-watching Netflix while knitting, otherwise known as “knitflixing”. It’s a thing amongst knitters, believe me. Intersect and Netflix however, do not…

Day 3 - currently making. Ehhhmm 🤔I have 3 WIP's that I am definitely not allowed to show because they are in either the #techedit or #testknit phase so I guess this is it! My Flauschy is almost done in #dropsalpaca & #dropsbrushedalpacasilk and so cozy! #yarnlovechallenge @yarnlovechallenge #knittinggoals #knittersofinstagram (bij Bussum)

Day 1 - introductions of the #yarnlovechallenge is here! So fun to take part! So here we are with my favorite #yarndujour @dererumnatura #gilliatt in Fusain and Caramel. I cannot count the ways in which this yarn makes me happy. ❤️ as for me: I am a makeup artist, aspiring writer, translator and knitting tech editor! Today it's about a current #testknit and an submission edit for a brilliant designer 🙏🏻💙 #lovemyyarnbuddies @yarnlovechallenge #knittersofinstagram #knittinglove #knittinggoals

Gorgeous new design by @ilsebillknits ❤ the #maine #cardigan is worked in worsted weight with a striking contrast ribbing. Mine was done in #dererumnatura #gilliatt such a quick and satisfying knit! Perfect for keeping cozy and warm in this nasty January weather! ❄️⛈🌬🌨☔️ #knittersofinstagram #knittinglove

This week was incredibly hard on so many levels. But it's Friday, I am surrounded by boxes and chaos. So I need to crawl out from under my blankets and make at least this small corner of my life pretty. It's time for #spring #tulips #lightsinthedark the next #wip on the list to finish before the move, a sweet message from a friend and #marilyn keeping a cheeky eye on things. Thank you @grasmops @justliveloveenjoy and @ariannetasevski to make this possible. Without my best girls where would I be? #gratitude #love #newbeginnings2017 (bij Bussum)

So nice, I knit it twice! Probably one of the best written and most interesting patterns out there! In love with it still! #dutchhoodie #ilsebillknits #texture #langyak #reginamoessmerdesign #hoodie ❤️ @ilsebill309knits @ilsebillknits (bij Bussum)

Because some of my favorites are now included and because it's the last day of a ridiculous and heartbreaking year. #2016bestnine #revisited #elsa❤️ @autikrachtelsa #klimt @lilalu72 @bittersweet69 @plakhuis @justliveloveenjoy #meetingthegang
