Boyfriend's scarf complete with a few more adjustments

Hello everyone, I hope you are enjoying this fall day. It's raining here and I am glad that I am home now.




I got my hair cut today. This always makes me feel really good and refreshed. I got it cut at a mall nearby and of course it began to rain as I was leaving so I had to shield my hair from the rain. Here's a picture of how it turned out!:

Did you know you can actually get feathers put in your hair now? my hair dresser told me its like hair extensions but with feathers instead. Here's a link to explain further.

I am so thankful for the weekend when it comes because it allows me to slow down and take some time to focus on myself and most of all, my knitting.

I finished the red and blue scarf I was working on for my boyfriend. I just need to weave in the ends that were left at the beginning of each row.




Have a good day! I'll let you know how he liked it :)

Tim hortons: a stress release

Hello :)

Today was such a gloomy day and I work at a childcare center and we could not even get the kids outside to play today so it felt even longer!

At the end of my day I drove with my mom first to no frills, then to Tim Hortons, our favorite after work spot.

I got the delicious cafe mocha and a pumpkin spice muffin, both were soooo delicious and my mom and I devoured them once we got home. It's nice to treat yourself after a long day at work especially after a rainy day.

Do you have any after work routines to de-stress and unwind? :)
Have a good night!

website spotlight: Wool and the gang

I came across an article in my Nylon magazine that talked about a knitting website that offers knitting patterns and has knitted products for sale. They have a jacket called "the James Dean Jacket" that resembles his denim jacket, but its a knitted version of course. There are also video tuturials for knitting beginners which I found helpful as well. Check it out!
