So much has happened this past week or so, so I'll try not to make this too long..
I found a vintage Velvet tobacco tin for my sister, an almost-antique sketchbook of Washington Irving (the author of Sleepy Hollow, I believe), and then I crocheted a few coasters for Timothy and his brother for their apartment! (I know it's a basic granny-square, but for some reason I have a hard time with these sometimes).
I also crocheted a scarf/headband/turban using this pattern! I used the wrong kind of yarn I think, so it doesn't look exactly like the picture..but it's so warm and cozy and I'm very proud of it!
My sister has also been doing my hair a lot this break, and this is one of the few hairstyles I've had. I don't know what she did, but all I know is it's got a fishtail braid in it.
(And this is my baby Ginger, sleeping by the Christmas tree). x
Timothy's gift to me this year was a trip to Asheville, in the mountains! We went to the arboretum (they had a few flowers and a lego sculpture exhibit) and puttered around downtown for a little bit (there was a bookstore that also sold wines and champagnes! It was magical). We didn't have time to see Chimney Rock or the Biltmore mansion-castle, but we had tons of fun getting lost everywhere. Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the trip:

I have a bunch more, but I think I should stop before I get carried away.. Hope you all have a wonderful new year's! x
