Maximizing the final nights of my vacation. Back to reality in a few days 😭

I'm on my last days of vacation and my rental has a fireplace. Must make use of all the amenities 😅

I always find it really strange to rent someone else's bed when I'm on vacation.

But they have a wonderful mirror!

🎶Hey there, I know it's hard to feel🎶

I took time to finish up this sweater before I go on vacation next week.

​

I'm incredibly happy with the pattern and the drape.

Crafty minxes:

Yarn is wool 80% acrylic 20% blend in DK weight using a 5mm hook.This is main pattern I customized a little just to fit me a little better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuH42-Bb2iY&list=PLEpzjlU9e06xTeWfDxj-INGwGhs-gjtjv&index=2&t=1101s

Maybe?

Definitely dancing to this, wearing your old t-shirt.

You have been really greats sports about guessing the colour and I'm happy to share a few pictures of the finished piece.

​

I'm going to be making more of these tops in different colourways after my next sweater (which is already in progress LOL)!

It's been raining all weekend, and I don't want to get out of bed 🥱

I should potato my couch more often, I forgot how comfy it is!

Excuse the short break from your delicious lace pictures but...

Popped the sweater back on to pose with my first batch of mini strawberries from my garden. I'm so excited because it looks like I'll get a good batch this year 🥰

Let's pretend it's still the weekend 😌

This is the first Sunday I won't have to work in months.

So, let's lay in bed and listen to the birds as we glide through the rest of the weekend 🥰

Had a crochet time blackout last night and ended up like this.

No one fed me Doritos though 😭

I love this scarf 🥰

Last picture is the progress on my new garment. You've probably figured out what it is but you still have time to guess the colour (and shade) of the complimentary yarn I've picked. Correct guess means I'll post on Tuesday 😅

Guesses so far:

☑️Pale green

☑️Baby blue

☑️Green

☑️Pale yellow

☑️Light purple

For my crafty minxes:
Yarn is locally dyed 100% cotton in fingering weight
Pattern is Tendril Shawl (and it only takes 1 skein!)

Extra love to u/BlueEyesWhiteGooner , u/nick_writ3s and u/HuntForValidation for opening up the mug circle 😘

Waiting for my lunch, pulling up my dress.

Apologies for the blinding winter thighs 🥰

I'm so in love with this yarn (purchased while day drinking 😅) so I'm making something pretty for me!

And for funsies, if you guess the correct complementary colour yarn (including the shade) before I post my next update, I'll do a proper TOT with the final garment 👀

Crafty Minxes:
Yarn is locally hand dyed 80% Italian superwash merino 20% nylon with a tiny metallic thread woven through in fingering weight

Non crafty minxes:
Fingering weight is not a typo 😏
