5 things for the weekend 22.23

#readcaribbean, free knitting pattern, refresh your home, #tenonthe10th

June is Caribbean Heritage Month, and also Read Caribbean month on Instagram, and I am already having a blast. I have a very unrealistic TBR stack for the month (but that’s normal right?), and while I know I won’t read them all, I sure am going to have fun trying!

Have you read any Caribbean books?

5 Things

1. Shetland Wool Week has released their free annual hat pattern, and it’s a delight for those knitters who love colourwork.

2. Looking to spend an entire afternoon reading? Try one of these 50 contemporary books under 200 pages.

3. If you lunch prep, and even if you don’t, try these Mediterranean chickpea salad jars.

4. Our creative projects can take a bit of a backseat during this time. If you’re trying to jumpstart it, sign up for the free Teaser Weekend from Art is Magic.

5. Try one, or a few of these Mini Moves to make your home feel fresh and new!
