Sunday Treasures


I got the knit itch today and decided to get out and find a yarn shop. I ended up in Islington on a back street that turned out to be a hidden treasure. There was a wonderful mini vintage/ antique market.
 Perfect on a chill Sunday


                                           
About half way down the passage I found Loop. The kid in the candy store feeling every time. 

                                                       


Felt like some early trick-or-treating


On my way back down the street I couldn't help but stop at a few of the market stalls. I fell in love with this vintage cigarette case. Or was it a wallet??


After such a leisurely day it was great to come home and play around with my purchases. 

Evening Playlist
Yeah yeah yeahs
Little Dragon
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros.


I'll have a beautiful Lilac scarf in no time.

Casting On


Hello world! I'm elated to be kicking off my little blog. I'll be sharing my adventures and posting mainly about good beer, knitting, and my trials in cooking. All of which are the icing on my cake. I'm here to unravel everything and I'm taking you along for the ride!



What better place to start than at Looped yarn works...one of my favorite places ever!
