Summer Knitting Projects

I've done a blog post before on what to knit during the summer but I thought I would do a new, updated version.

During the summer I like to take a break from knitting wintery hats and scarves. Instead, I use bright colors and tend to knit more home-decor items.

Here are some of my favorite summer projects!

Fall Art

While we were away, I was inspired to paint! I brought lots of watercolors with me and I painted almost every day we were gone. I haven't done much watercolor painting so this was a chance for me to practice. I'm not fully satisfied with the results (what artist is?) but I tried my best to mainly capture the lovely fall colors all around me.

Spring is Sure to Follow

"No matter how long winter is, Spring is sure to follow."

 The ground at my house may be currently covered in snow but I keep reminding myself that spring will soon come! I've recently created this new Pinterest board with inspiring spring images: Lexalex: Spring
