Happy Sunday all!

My "little" brother finally got married yesterday!!

It was a beautiful ceremony, full of laughter and love and a brilliant way to officially welcome my brother's best friend to the family 🥰

On a side note: It also gave me a great excuse to dress up and finally wear the James C Brett Shawl 🥰

Happy WIP Wednesday!

It's a bit late in the day but I've finally sat down to work on the secret project 🥰🧶

Would love to see what everyone else is working on!

Happy Tuesday all!

I hope everyone got through the heat wave ok yesterday!

So I'm making the most of the cooler weather this morning to get some rows done on my secret project before work starts.
