Dear Texas,
It's almost October and it is going to be 94 degrees tomorrow. For your sake, I will ignore this unfortunate heat and dream of the cool, crisp days ahead.
Not-So-Patiently Yours,
Meredith

Crochet // I'm amazed by crochet artist Jo Hamilton, but I'm particularly in love with her cozy and yarn-filled work place.

I hope everyone had a great weekend! Hopefully it is a little bit cooler in your neck of the woods. What do you look forward to the most in the fall?
I am in love with the mask that lovely blogger added to her outfit. Definitely gives it a wonderful fall feel. I'm also SO IN LOVE with the shelves filled with yarn. I feel like craft storage makes a room feel so much more home-y.
ReplyDeleteI feel you about the hot days. I'm in southern california and we have yet to see a day of fall. I even went up to mountains yesterday to go apple picking in hopes of some fall weather, but no such luck. Washington sounds wonderful right about now...
Those soups look delicious! I will making those very soon.
ReplyDeleteI also love seeing Jo Hamilton's workspace. She does such amazing crochet work that it makes sense she'd have a cool creative space to do it in.
ReplyDeleteI love that living room with a shelf full of yarn. So fun! I'd love for that to be mind. xo, rv

It's actually not cool at all here in New York either. It's quite warm. We had a taste of the fall weather last weekend and it was glorious! But then the humidity returned :(
ReplyDeletetomato soup and grilled cheese in a mug?! wow! sounds.... fun! :)
ReplyDeletelove, polly :D
I live in Texas as well and I really want it to be scarf weather!! I'm tired of waiting for it to get cold. >.< I should start knitting some new scarves though since I have the time. -.-
ReplyDeleteHi Meredith!
ReplyDeleteI live in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and its called "the city of eternal spring" so you can imagen that its hot almost every day of the year, so I really undertand you missing the cool days I do too, but soon they will be here(:
I love that quilt start and the illustration of the sheeps <3
I hope your having an awesome sunday(:

i feel ya about the heat! it's gonna be 90 here in a couple days. oklahoma weather is super bipolar!
ReplyDeletei love the velvet bird's new dress! i can't wait to see more from her collection!
Ooh I love that bookshelf! And what's underneath!
ReplyDeleteLove! I totally commiserate about the weather. I thought Dallas was done with the upper 90 heat...but no such luck. Soon enough though. The sweaters will just have to stay put for now. Also, I went to We are 1976 after seeing your post, and I loved it. Endearingly quirky! Thanks for posting about it, otherwise I might never have discovered it!
ReplyDelete:D
I just want to say that you have *excellent* taste! I always enjoy reading your blog and appreciate all the treasures you so happily share with the rest of the class! ;) Thanks and good luck with the TX weather, here's to a bit of a cool-down soon!
ReplyDeleteHaha, this always makes me chuckle. It is realy hot in the UK this week too (well, about 25*c but that's hot for here!). I read a lot of American blogs and they're always complaining about the heat (I appreciate it must be very hot!) but we all want the heat to stay a little longer here - it's normally so cold! :(
ReplyDeleteOoh! I am very honored to be on any list that involves fall things, thank you!!! And I completely agree, all I ever want is cooler weather to come. I am in Georgia so I feel your pain, ha ha
