Life Lately: Knitting in the Wild

Hello, friends! I hope you’re enjoying some sunny rays in your corner of the world. Bristol has been glorious recently and I’ve been taking time out for evening strolls, and alfresco dates with my kindle whenever I can. I’ve been conspicuously absent from the blog for the last 6 months, beavering away on freelance work, so it’s nice to be back after a few trips away to recharge.

In April the mister and I took a trip to the lakeside town of Lausanne in Switzerland for his 30th birthday. It’s a gorgeous old university town with a really artsy vibe, not dissimilar to Bristol. Just add a gorgeous view and awe-inspiring mountains!

Shortly after I traveled to Brighton with my mum for a weekend and couldn’t resist a few rows at the end of the pier! This is the early stages of the formidable Lila sweater by Carrie Bostick Hoge, which is so beautiful. I’ve made a vow recently to try and knit (and design!) more wearable projects this year, that match my style more closely and I’m super excited!

The yarn I’m using for Lila is Drops Lima in Light Brown (5310) and it’s the perfect lightweight, springy yarn — such a Dream to knit with. I’ll be back with updates on how she’s progressing soon.

What are you working on at the moment?
