Knitting // Lovely knit fingerless gloves, and a hairstyle I wish I could try, from Couverture and The Garbstore.
Crochet // I really want to make this giant granny square blanket from the Purl Bee.
Wish List // As if my home needs another notebook stashed in a drawer, but it's hard to resist this sweet deer design
Style // Such beautiful colors and patterns in this cozy sweater from Oysho.
Art // I love that Society 6 is offering throw pillow versions of the beautiful art on their site! The winter lights and tea time pillows are two of my favorites.
I hope you all had a great weekend! I spent most of my time at home, bundled up in sweaters, working on some exciting projects. The best part of the weekend is almost here: Downton Abbey! It is going to be really hard for me to not look up spoilers since season 3 already aired in the UK. (You are all so lucky!) I do love a surprise though so I will try to avoid temptation. I hear this season is a good one.
How was your weekend? Is anyone else watching Downton tonight? Are you doing anything fun for the first episode?
Happy Sunday to you!
I'm looking forward to Downton Abbey too! I'm making sure I won't have any distractions.
ReplyDeleteI love that notebook! I have a few stashed away that aren't written in at all... but I couldn't resist because they were so cute!

Did not know society 6 was doing pillows... so great!
ReplyDeleteOh, Meredith, I'm so glad I saw this! I forgot about Downton being on tonight! Phew. I better get prepared.
ReplyDeleteI have attempted making the giant granny square blanket a few times over the last year or so.. I get so far and then it finds its way into a closet for me to rediscover it later!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had one of those scones right now! I love that bright light pillow! So pretty!

Those pillows are amazing! Those scones don't look bad either.

The big granny square blanket is such a great project!
ReplyDeleteI've never watched Downton - but I probably should check it and see what all the fuss is about! Have you watched Sherlock? It's a brilliant UK drama but I'm not sure if it aired in the US. Well worth a watch. Have a lovely week! x
ReplyDeleteThe notebook is really cute - and who ever made that blanket deserves a medal!

I've been thinking about making a giant granny square blanket too but I seem to loose the enthusiasm for it about 10 rounds in so I end up making smaller squares instead, the giant blankets take serious dedication.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh, I love the deer notebook and the throw pillows!!! So pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this notebook! Don't worry—I'm one of those people who has too many journals too! But I use every single one, and I love stashing my ideas, dreams and musings in between their pages :)
ReplyDeleteA lovely blush list, for sure.
Smiles and all the best,

I am such a sucker for a cute notebook >.< Guilty of having a stash! The giant granny square blanket is gorgeous - and inspiring!
ReplyDeleteI saw that blanket on purl bee the other day and immediately bookmarked it. So cozy looking. I love the different take on the granny square. I love that sweater, and the lights in that pillow make me think the pillow lights up. It's sort of crazy!
ReplyDeletesuch a beautiful blog you`ve got! I just started watching Downton Abbey, so I`m only at season 2, episode 2. Loving it! love the characters, the plot and last but not least the costumes! And I totally agree on the scones and tea. Made some crossover muffin-scones yesterday. Yums! For some reason I find it kind of obligatory to enjoy a cup of english breakfast tea and some fresh scones whenever I watch some kind of old fashioned British tv-show. Or the Wedding of Kate and William.
ReplyDeleteOMG cant believe youre just starting season 3! So many emotions still to come... yeah don't look up spoilers, it was amazingly good so will be a nice surprise :) (altho we may be lucky to get it first but you guys get all the good movies first!) Love the granny blanket, I so wanna learn crochet :)
ReplyDeleteThe blanket is amazing ! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh that blanket is to die for! Would take a while, but I may just have to give it a whirl. :)

I love the 2 cushions you've picked out! What a great idea to print your photos onto cushions! :-D you will love downton! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYeaaaah my friends and I watched all of season 1 and season 2 (15 hours) in one day. It was awesome!!! I've loved the new season so far. Very high stakes, big drama, even without the War. I like how they're still weaving in historical stuff and really capturing how the house has to adapt to the new world. I really wish they'd shown more of M&M's wedding though! And I'm dying over the cuteness that is Mr. and Mrs. Branson (despite his ludicrous recent actions).
