The summer sweater

I knitted this garment because, yes...you can wear knitted clothes in the summer. You just have to pick a lighter yarn, a not-so-tight fit, and voila!

I knitted this sweater using the Danae Pattern by Claire Reagan from TKGA's Cast On Magazine.
worn with American Eagle jeans and Alejandrina's Roma sandals

I'm not sure I could wear a sweater in the summer even if the yarn was lighter, but it suits you. I like all your arty photography, I can see you are really getting into it!

I like these out and about photos. And the sweater you knitted matches your hair so well. I actually don't mind a lightweight sweater in the summer. Any time I go into a movie theater or store it's always freezing so I carry a jacket with me every day in the summer.

I love the colours in this! Looks so fun for summer, and such a nice light knit. I'm jealous of your ability to make the most beautiful clothes! :)

Hope you are having a nice start to your week! It's so cold here, we had the coldest day in 4 years recently! Definitely needing all the layers!

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
