every day is a holiday

hello! summer is upon us and i am loving the warmer weather. it's just great to be outdoors when the sun is shining. last weekend i went away for the weekend to san diego. i love going down there and really don't do it enough. we were only there for a day and a half really but it was just enough time to get some time on the beach and some good food. on the way back to la we stopped by the carlsbad flower fields, which i have never been to before. they had fields and fields of gorgeous ranunculus blooms.

love love love. and just so you don't think i haven't been knitting, here is a hat i finished for my brother made of malabrigo worsted (my fave) in sfo sky.

not very exciting but a good basic guy hat. i am off to arizona this weekend and hope to get a chance to go to a yarn shop out there. i haven't bought any yarn in a long time. i've been trying to save money and use the stash. but souvenir yarn doesn't count, right? i hope the flowers are blooming where you are!
