Summer, summer, summertime!

I had a whole blog post all complete and ready to publish and then it just blooped itself into oblivion so I had to start all over again lol! Summer vacation is in full swing! 

We've kicked off our Summer reading...

Always a fan of the library!

My almost 13 year old finished up this classic and highly recommended it after complaining that the movie was definitely not as good as the book lol 

We've gotten a few morning trail hikes in having fun exploring the woods and taking polaroids of some interesting findings from the viewpoint of my 8 year old :)

My "Leftie" shawl is growing...I've repeated the colors 3 more times since this pic was taken and I plan to just keep going until I run out of yarn so I'm hoping it's going to be fairly large and colorful! Its one of the knits I pick up and work on whenever I feel like it. Great TV knitting.

Any chance to help out Nonno mow the lawn and steer the mower...

I've spent more time in the studio. I have some new components on the way so I can't wait to play around and get a shop update in the works so stay tuned for that...

My "Tegna" sweater is really coming along! I'd be done if I could just get more "sit down and knit" time in. Split for the sleeves and working the shoulders shaping. Cute little short sleeves are next up and then it should be ready to block and wear!

Birthday celebrations were had and more on the way. With their birthdays a month apart we've pretty much been celebrating for almost a month straight now lol

How have you been spending your Summer vacation so far?

Any crafty endeavors in the works? 

Hop on over to my instagram for more daily snaps and stories from the studio and everyday life :) 

Thanks for stopping by!
