With all the snow we've been getting, these boots are the out of the shoe closet. They don't get a lot of wear when I have to drive, but they're perfect for walks in the snow, or when shovelling:D Tecnica Moon Boots Bwahaha

Out of all my knits, this shawl I made in 2016 is the one I've been wearing almost all the time during this winter, and I can't believe I haven't blog about it more often. I wear this shawl even to bed sometimes....sorry for not putting you on the spotlight more often, my friend! Shawl I knitted using Stephen West's Boneyard Shawl pattern, UNIQLO pants, old Saks 5th sweater, Timberland boots I love this pattern so much I actually made two of these shawls. I'll be blogging about that one, too:) Do you have a constant companion when it comes to your outfits?

I concede.

Even though I complain about winter and snow and the coldness, one thing I really do love about the the season is that I can bust out all the knitwear. Winter is the best time for us knitters:D sweater I knitted using the Carbeth pattern by Kate Davies, UNIQLO pants, Timberland booties How is the weather where you are? Hope you are keeping warm/cool:)

You never forget your first.

This was the first sweater I've ever knitted...back in 2013 or 2014, I think. The stitches are twisted, the neckline did not fit properly that I had to cut the back collar...what can I say? It's not perfect. It's still one of my fave though, because it's soooo warm and well, it was my first:) Do you have an item in your wardrobe that might not be the most fashionable thing but you still love?
