Friday Etsy finds : Woodland Belle

Apologies for my absence in the last few days. I've been totally flat out with work and life and couldn't find any spare minutes for posting. Will do better next week.

Wool and the Gang

Wool and the Gang are about quality wool and simple, easy knits that even beginners can get excited about. You can buy a kit, a pattern, some wool or the finished product. I love the Snood Dogg scarf (above right).

I still have to finish knitting the jumper I started last winter but then I'll be right on to it. Promise.

Colourful Tuesday : Colour blocking

I love Boxing Day sales. Well, I love all sales really. Urban Outfitters have these great dresses on sale so go grab yourself a bargain. Have fun :)

Friday Etsy finds : Fur Mittens

This post is dedicated to my friend Chris from Edmonton who let me know that I had missed a massive snow dump and that it's -29 C (-20.2 F) outside. I'm so jealous of you Canadians! I want lots of snow too even if it means going back to Edmonton...

These fur mittens by Calf Dr are perfect for those cold days (and he now ships to Canada). You can also read Elmer's story and make up your own mind on whether you like them or not. I'm undecided.

Label focus: Day Birger et Mikkelsen
