I’ve always found it ridiculous when bloggers apologize and make up justifications for not having posted in a long, long time. Instead I’ll show you some of what I’ve been up to, with some commentary of course. Picture heavy post, enjoy!
Living in the country comes with all sorts of perks and surprises.. Such as super large toads, and a brother willing to hold them so I can take a picture.
Eating raspberries still warm from the sun = pure heaven. I miss that, summer please come back.
Meet Serikos. A new 100% silk yarn I began dyeing towards the end of summer and forgot to officially introduce.
I got to meet Leanne Praine & Mandy Moore who were promoting their new book, Yarn Bombing at the Pic-Knit in August.
And they signed mine 🙂
Went on a house boat on the Shuswap lake for the Labour Day weekend.
Took some nice pictures there.
I spend a lot of my time on Granville Island. Being a student at Emily Carr University of Art & Design will do that to you.
This is one of my favourite views. Taken while sitting on the benches waiting for Jason to come meet me. I remember the sweetest old lady coming up to stand beside me with her camera. I offered to take a picture of her infront of the bridge. She then went on to tell me she was a tourist. I asked from where, she said Langley, BC. I laughed and told her I live there.
Little friends, can’t eat lunch without them.
My itty bitty studio space at ECUAD.
A painting we had to continuously paint new paintings on top of for a project. This was the third one.
Something about this place fascinates me.
The view from Canada Place, looking back on the city. Epic.
Meet Jason. The now not so new boyfriend. I made his hat!
And his socks for Christmas.
And some cashmere mitts just because.
Made myself a thicker version of the Citron.
And a very pretty, very soft High Line Shawl.
And some mitts for myself as well. Too bad it isn’t cold enough to wear any of this..
Okay, enough pictures for now.
