if you're going to get any joy out of being depressed, you've got to stand like this.

(jan. 11. Salvation Army thrifted sweater and dress).

my favourite part about this sweater is that the white bits are angora and fluffy. my least favourite part is the fact that i shrunk it by mistake. it's a tough thing to get over, when you shrink one of your favourite pieces of clothing.

"this is my depressed stance. when you're depressed, it makes a lot of difference how you stand. the worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you'll start to feel better. if you're going to get any joy out of being depressed, you've got to stand like this." - Charlie Brown.

(jan. 10. linen blouse bought in the south of France, daisy-printed Top Shop jeans and thrifted cotton heart sweater.)

i love this one and i always get comments on it. i love that the little hearts look like little pincushions, but i think there might have been more of them in the past. i also really appreciate the subtle stitch detail all over the sweater. it gives it a great texture!).

i believe in symmetry.

(okay wow, yup! someone needs a roots touch up and a trim).

amazing, amazing, amazing awesome vintage find from Retrospect. super bold and easy in a crisp (almost rough?) cotton yarn with just one little twist -- a bizzaaro shape!

january - sweater month.

(Jan.1.)

in celebration of my NEW blog, knitorious, that i've just started with my friend, amanda, i decided to name january, sweater month! as absurd as it is, i realized that i have a different sweater for every day in the month of january, so each day henceforth will be represented by a different sweater! here's number one, above, a sweater i bought from etsy.
