Craftoween

I spent my Wednesday fulfilling some family obligations at home. In between my tasks, I knitted and crocheted these works in progress.

I also received my package from The Attic Yarn and Craftery. These yarns and my new Furls crochet hook are already my Christmas presents to myself. I am living in challenging times, so I have to be frugal. I also have to plan my expenses with prudence.

My Halloween was not so bad! I spent it with my family, with my fiber arts, and some new yarns and notions. I hope to have more simple crafternoon moments and productive days ahead!

Staying Strong

Yesterday, I decided to frog my crochet stitches and begin again with a knitted shawl. I was unhappy with the uneven edges, so I decided that it was best to knit it instead.

I also joined in some Halloween festivities at the mall.

I relaxed with a coffee float.

And had hairbrushes made for me and my mom!

Before going home, I had a quick dinner at Yoshinoya.

And upon going home, I instantly brushed my hair.

I may rock a pixie, but I still brush my hair! It helps me unwind from all the challenges in life. I stay strong with fiber arts, food, and simple joys.

I hope that you also find ways to be stronger each day!
