Happy new year! I hope you had a good Christmas season and are read for the new year? I've been working hard on my Shining life workbooks and I am very ready for the new year! It is a year of big jubilees, like Finland's 100 years of independence celebration year plus several round birthdays in my family and I have high hopes for the year. I will be posting some plans here, too, I am sure.

A week before Christmas me and Nick took the weekend off to head to Koroinen, an association-led culture center in Turku, in order to kickstart the Finnish Permaculture Association. I won't write it all again here, so if you are interested please reat the article at my garden & homestead blog Beyond Buckthorns!

Amazing, there is an FO ready in my house!

Celebration reasons:
1) I made a pair of socks, after such a pause, and they have a pattern even!
2) I am blogging about them!

It may not seem like much to anyone, but it does symbolize something to me, this FO and the fact that I am blogging about them. It means knitting is not completely lost to me, nor is knit blogging. I still want to create with my hands and share what I've done with like-minded people and maybe even be of some help for someone.

I got this book from the library yesterday evening, and devoured it last night and this morning. It made an impact on me to say the least. But let me go a few steps back first.

Since 2014 I've been using and loving Leonie Dawson's life and biz workbooks, and as I've ordered mine for 2017 I thought I'd share the love with you too.
