I decided to start picking a weekly theme (the color red for this week). I had seen it as a suggestion if you feel like you live in a boring area...which I do. 😂 Find the beauty in simple, everyday things.

No shame adding to the #TBR pile when you are spending gift cards, right? 😉😂 What better way to spend time on the last day of my week off from work...choosing books on my want to read list and getting recommendations from Andrea at Molly's Bookstore in Melrose, MA 📚💙 #booksky #wanttoread #fiction

The architecture of this Essex, MA town hall and library is amazing! It was built in 1893-1894 and its architect was Frank W. Weston of Boston and Malden, Massachusetts.

I love how these ribbed ear warmers worked up with the random sized stripes. The color combos in this yarn are beautiful!

I could not be more in love with these colors of Premier Yarns Basix Trendy! These are my favorites out of the 9 colors they recently released. They will likely become hats or ear warmers, but I am open to any other suggestions for these lovelies!

Happy Independent Bookstore Day! I won't be able to get to my local bookstore this weekend, but still wanted to support them. And @bookshop.org has free shipping all weekend!

I was organizing my yarn yesterday and came across this random skein that was begging to be made into a hat! 😉 This ribbed slouchy beanie can also be worn as a classic cuffed beanie. I love how the jacquard striping worked up vertically! #crochet #hat #beanie #slouchybeanie

Working on my next blanket for Project Linus using leftover cakes of Lion Brand Mandala Impressions. Realized it was going to be a bit short, so I had to buy another cake to finish it. 🫢 At least I will be stashing it down immediately! 😉 #crochet #blanket #afghan #grannystripe #projectlinus

I love a good ripple blanket, whether it's Chevron, Round Ripple or Wavy ripple. They are great to donate or gift, and that is exactly what I did with 3 out of the 4. I couldn't part with the Round Ripple though and kept that one for myself. 😉 #crochet #crochetblanket #crochetafghan #rippleblanket

I went deep diving in the stash and found this yarn I bought 4.5 years ago! I used 2 strands to make the hat chunky. The color is called Dark Ginger and I love how it worked up! #crochet #crochethat #cascade220

I started my next #ProjectLinus blanket, but this one will probably take a while. It's going to be a scrap blanket using the cluster v-stitch. I am using this whole tote bag of remnants and unloved skeins. I can't wait to see how it turns out! #crochet #crochetblanket #afghan #crochetafghan

Dropped off these stroller size blankets at JoAnn's today for Greater Boston #ProjectLinus. The ridged ripple is one of my favorite stitches. I love the little bit of dimension and texture it gives to the blanket. #crochet #crochetblanket #crochetafghan #blanket #afghan

TBR in February (book club and monthly challenge). I am also reading The Bee Sting by Paul Murray, but I have reached Imelda's chapters which have no punctuation. It makes for a bit more challenging read, so I will take a break. #booksky
