Fall is for Knitting

{image}

I've recently been working on a project that has me so excited for cold nights.  I've been going through yarn faster than ever and each and every stitch gets me more and more eager to finish.  But after I finish, I know I'll want to start another project.  I'm just not sure what.

Thank goodness for the internet ::

1 / 2 / 3 / 4

Mayhaps I'll knit a blanket with bold blocks of color.  Or intricately knit the most adorable booties in existence.  Or perhaps I'll finally knit my main squeeze a manly gray cap (I've knit hats, I just never have for him.  Poor thing) or really get into the Halloween spirit (too late) and knit up a witch!

Hope the weather is treating you nicely wherever you are - our weather is fall at its finest right now :)

Lusting for :: Toast's Salt Water Sandals

These Salt Water sandals from Toast's spring collection had me at first sight.  There's something about them that's fun and playful but also invokes memories of dressing up in my grandma's shoes when I was little.  I think that's why I adore them so.  

I'm itching for spring so badly and these 45 degree days we're having are only making it worse.  I'm enjoying the weather, I really am.  I've been wearing my jacket instead of my coat and even went for a brief jog yesterday (I can't jog).  But I know it's only a tease.  I mean, it is still mid-February and this is Chicago so it's only a matter of time until we're back to the brutality of winter, right?  Hopefully I'm wrong.  Because I really want to step outside in some sandals, like these from Toast as soon as possible.  Oh to walk around in them right now without slush getting all over my feet! Sigh.

I definitely reached the point where winter has completely worn out its welcome.  I need it to be spring!
