These are all the books I added to my shelves last year (wow, that feels good to say!). I bought Heartstopper vol. 3 in March just before everything went downhill, and the others I received around my birthday. I received or used gift cards on these books around Christmas this year. I am particularly excited…… Continue reading 2020 Books
New Year, New Socks
First of all, happy new year! I hope 2021 is kinder to you all. Secondly, as you can probably tell, my first finished project of this year is me-size crocheted socks! I wasn’t a huge fan of my previous knitted ones, but these feel a lot thicker and sturdier. The pattern is from an old…… Continue reading New Year, New Socks

Growing Sunflowers
The sunflower stitching has been growing steadily over the past week! I’ve made it all the way down to the basket they sit in…. ….and I’m now starting to work my way across to the right. There are lots of pastel colours in the background, which will look gorgeous. I plan to do the ground…… Continue reading Growing Sunflowers
Red Jersey
For Tiffany’s next project, she will take this red jersey…. ….and turn it into a cute singlet top! Because it’s all jersey, and thus nice and stretchy, it has no velcro in the back; it’ll slide on from her feet. It’s definitely nice and cool, and the dark red colour is festive too! I think…… Continue reading Red Jersey
Decorating In and Out
In-between decorating her apartment…. ….Sarah’s helping Tiffany and Petra decorate the stores for the holidays. Most of their time is spent being silly with the decorations, though. “What do you think Petra?” “Uhm….” “Hey Tiff, can I borrow extra hooks for my wreath and these lights?” “Sure I’ll just– Sarah’s got biscuits!” “Do you want…… Continue reading Decorating In and Out
