bought a permanent marker and tried drawing with that instead of my usuals (pencil or fineliner), haven't quite got the hang of its quirks yet but it is fun for me to try a different medium and i love the bold look of the resulting doodles.

I am preparing my garden for winter. Gathering arugala, nasturtium and Cosmo seeds as I want to move them next year. Also planting more flower bulbs to fill out my flower beds as well as planting next years garlic!

I’ve been preparing for my baby by crocheting baby clothes. I’m doing a beanie rn :)

We've got number two on the way and my mother is furiously trying to finish another baby blanket. I wish you luck, I know baby will appreciate it.

I considered doing a blanket but I’ve opted for beanies, mittens and socks. They take fuck all time to make. Also why the fuck is yarn for babies so expensive?!

This is my go to pattern for baby blankets. It's a super simple pattern that's really quick to doand it's really easy to modify. I did one for a friend where I made it look like a sunset over the mountains just by adjusting the row heights for each color swatch. Chevron pattern

I also have a number two on the way. Not sure it needs a blanket.
