Today marks the day that I became a potential full-time Nanna. Not only do I now wear and adore nanna knits. Not only did I stay in last Saturday night with a good book and a cup of tea. Oh no, now you are looking at a nanna knitter in the making. Today I had a bit of Nanna and granddaughter day which is what everyone girl needs in their life sometimes, and I have been begging her lately to teach me how to knit. She makes the most amazing knit wear - My goal for next post is to incorporate a few of her famous knitted pieces she has made me throughout the years (I am actually wearing my most favourite knit jacket she made as I type!). She explained to me that when she was a girl knitting, sewing, cooking and laundry were core subjects that everyone needed to learned (even the guys!). Knitting and sewing seems to be such a dying art form, and I would love for the tradition to be passed onto my kids, and their kids. I mean we'll see how the knitting goes, I'm not expecting miracles but I'm giving it a good go :)
It took me so long to decide what to wear today. Perth's weather has been pretty all over the joint, so I originally started in denim shorts and a button up shirt and boots. But I decided I was going to freeze my buttons off so I got into my favourite trusty jeans and was on my way :)
I am wearing: Target heels / Nobody jeans / Kookai singlet / Dotti Fur snood / Sportsgirl hat / Ltd edition Tension Gold watch / OPI nailpolish
Does anyone else knit!?
TAH xx
