How far and where are you walking? Cos if it’s around town/urban trails/ dog walking etc, these boots from warehouse are great. Waterproof, comfy (I added sheepskin liner for extra warm toastiness) and have lasted 3 years so far. All for $22.

Not so much to go to bed, but I can wake to this because apparently breakfast is late

The irony of stuff having both these stories on its front page and failing to recognise they represent the same issue

Does anyone else come home from a walk on the beach with a pocket full of treasures?

I have been busy sewing without documenting much recently - so here are a recent make
Self drafted top with ruffled hems, chiffon fabric from The Fabric Store.
Bit fiddly to make, especially with rolled hem of gathers but insides all finished with french seams. #aotearoacrafts🧶🪡

The utter depravity of the US.

I mean what the actual fuck does this remind people of?!

Knitted this ready for the hot weather (whenever that might arrive). I didn’t particularly enjoy the lace work cos I really had to concentrate (I’m a relatively newbie knitter) but very happy with the result. It’s the kuutar top from Sari Nordland 🧶🇳🇿
