After being waylaid by multiple colds, I’m finally After being waylaid by multiple colds, I’m finally back to blogging! 🤩🤧 My first post for 2026 (even though it’s already… February) is all about the Knitting Journal I made for my mum to keep track of her favourite hobby 🧶✨
You can see all of the spreads in the setup in today’s blog post! Link to the blog is in my bio 🫶🏻💜
Journal: Light Blue Moonlight Melody from @tiefossi 🩵🌙
A Blogmas At Home hiatus 🫶🏻🎄🥲 Hi guys!! I’m going A Blogmas At Home hiatus 🫶🏻🎄🥲
Hi guys!! I’m going to be taking a break from my daily Blogmas posts for a little while 🙁 I’m so disappointed about this because I had loads of exciting posts lined up, but the winter colds have really hit me hard this year and, with my already less-than-ideal health, it just isn’t feasible for me health/energy-wise right now 🙁 
Please know this decision was really hard to make (I LOVE sharing the festive season with all of you!) and while it makes me pretty ✨uncomfortable✨ to leave this year’s Blogmas At Home incomplete, I have to look after myself (or, at least, I’m learning to!). 
If/when I start feeling better, I’ll try to share some of the posts I had lined up with you all, to spread a bit of extra festive cheer in the run up to the big day, even if it’s not a daily occurrence! ✨🎄
