Good morning all! Living here in sunny San Diego with an Indian Summer that lasts well into November it makes it hard to get into all the fall fashion, decor and yummy stews & soups. But these fingerless gloves from Love & Knit are defiantly a possibility! Or even this adorable cowl. Both which can be sported with a tank top!


All of these hand-knit items come from the Etsy shop Love & Knit. Created by fashion designer, Mine Kurtulmus from Istanbul. Check out more of her beautifully crafted creations on Etsy.

I hope it’s been a fabulous week for you. I’ve had the great honor of reviewing another really good knitting book, KnitsMenWant and love it! It’s very well written, with a fun mix of wit and humor. Oh and the projects, I love them all… for me that is! With the menswear look totally in style right now, these boxy sweaters, hoodies and vest knitting projects are all to die for. I mean seriously, I should be thinking about my hubby but all I can think of is “that would look really cute with a torn pair of jeans, rolled and some flats!” Put a button down oxford underneath = outfit complete! All of projects are really easy to follow and they come in multiple gauges and sizes. Now all I need to do is dust off my knitting needles and head down to my local knitting store and start clicking away! Oh and did I mention the publisher of this book is having a Sweepstakes?
