Day 8: Flatlay
➰ Today’s flatlay is brought to you by knitting and the color teal. It was fun to throw in my little pearler bead yarn ball & knitting needles creation that I made a few months ago at one of our fun family gatherings.
I am excited to find time to dive into the Knitting Stitches book you see there, and maybe work on some pattern writing this Spring/Summer. I also need to finish those washcloths shown there! .

New year, new Sheep Shop ✨
Changing a few things up so that I can maybe actually possibly find time to make the things I’ve been wanting to for quite a while. And maybe some day even make something for myself (??? unheard of!)
I have so much planned for 2018. Stay tuned, friends.

Kompass Coffee, Auckland CBD
Drink pictured: Small flat white ($5)
Photos from that time I had a quick coffee at Kompass Coffee on Kitchener street before work! They serve The Vant Garde coffee, and my small flat white tasted a bit milky, but not bad! It’s a small cafe with inside and outside seats. I was sitting outside since the inside was pretty full, with a view of Albert Park and the Art Gallery!
I started a Botanical Dictionary in my new sketchbook :) I’ll be drawing all sorts of flowers, leaves, plants etc. First up: a pretty little peony.

A Look Inside :) This is step one: Drawing. I’ll be using this beauty to create a surface pattern design. Patterns have always been a part of life since I was a little kid, and it’s an absolute joy to create them. Can’t wait to see where this goes!

I use a lot of different books for different things, I decided to use this one for my current venture. Chicken scratch ideas, doodles, fully detailed sketches, dreams, etc. it’s all in here! I hand made this one, from the binding to the illustration on the cover :)
I’ll be sharing a glimpse of what happens inside these pages.

Sketches turn into magic.
Keep an eye out for this magnolia, it’ll be popping up in other designs :)
