The Foxes Hunt the Hounds

That's from a Fall Out Boy song, by the way, I did't make that up.

Hello!

Last night I made this little guy. Instead of making an order that I have to ship by Friday, I decided to make an order that I have until Christmas to make. I'm really good at prioritizing. 

To be fair, how could I resist the prospect of making a little guy like this? My only guidelines were "My daughter likes foxes and I want to give her one for Christmas." 

This pattern follows one I made this summer, expect that one was a sheep, so I had to make a few alterations. 

Super simple, just a fleece back, ears and tail, as well as a cotton belly and inside of the ears. A few white and brown details, a good movie, and there you have it, an adorable little fox.

Here you can see the cotton I used, isn't it cute? I bought it a while ago cause it was too adorable to pass up, but I didn't know what to do with it until now. 

I want to keep him for myself. 

Have a great end of weekend, and tomorrow is December woo!!!

It only took about a year

Hello!

Do you all remember this cardigan? I started it in December last year, kind of dropped it for a few months because I messed up the back, and picked it up once more this summer with the expert help of my grandmother.

It is complete.

Today was Daylight Savings and so with my extra hour I did homework. I'm kidding of course, I sewed the remaining sleeve onto the already completely sewn sweater. I ran out of yarn when I was in France and was only able to finish it earlier this month, but my grandmother had sewn the rest of it this summer. 

Other than that, yesterday, my dad and I went into the city and although we went with the goal of thrifting, we mostly wandered through expensive independent shops filled with things we wished we needed.

I got a candle in a gorgeous little box.

I'd say this was a good start to November.

Have a great week and stay warm, cause I don't know about you, but we're definitely starting to feel the cold around here.
