    Sara Parker is my vote! My favorite old movie is Moonstruck. It's not from the classic "old movie" era, but it was made in the late 80's so it's like 40 years old. I love it!

    A great vlog. You are such a kind mum frogging a sock to make one for your daughter and sharing the lovely skein. Crumpet the hamster is cute. Shame I'm allergic to rodents. You are very busy with all your WIPs and the allotment. The dahlias reminded me of my grandad's veg patch he always grew them.

    I always say, a person can smell it's winter and my husband's face in the beginning lol! But NOW he gets it. You can smell winter in the air.. Just like Spring, all the blossoms, fresh air, still cool-ish in the mornings and then.. The South African summer hits us, good Lord have mercy.. Can't even breathe. Funny enough, my mom is a 1600km away in the Western Cape and they have the worst cold fronts and winds strong enough to blow a tupé to the other side of the world lol I'm a spring and autumn person. I like those 2 seasons.

    • @OllieandBella

    I love the smell of autumn, too. You absolutely can "smell" it! I am so glad the heatwave is over now, I hate being "too hot." 😂 I have started a sweet shop blanket too. The pattern is so lovely, isn't it? Mine is all pastel colours with pale yellow as my main colour, and I'm using yarn from my stash, aka wool mountain 😂 it's all acrylic yarn that I've had for years. See you next time ❤

    • @OllieandBella

    I love it when you wake up in the mornings to that slight 'nip' in the air. You instantly know the season has shifted, and I get really excited at the thought of being able to layer clothes! As much as I adore the longer daylight hours, I really do love that shift and the smell of leaf decay is one of my favourite smells! ha ha! I was getting out all my wraps, scarves, hats and wrist warmers the other day in anticipation of Autumn, and realised it's probably my favourite time of year for making and wearing accessories. I have so many I've made over the years that I still love to wear. I've also just finished my second pair of socks. Get me! After 10 years of wanting to do it, I just did it one day thinking, 'What's the worst thing that could happen?'. The air was a little blue at first I'm not going to lie, but after my 4th sock, I felt I was turning a knitting corner! I was determined to complete a pair of socks before I turned 50! My ultimate goal is to knit sweaters that actually fit me. I'm a shortie and short in the body, so sweaters are usually too long for me. I just want to make my own to my own length. That's my next goal. I love how you talk about your knitting, as it gives me confidence to have a go....so thank you for that! I love love love it when I see a new post from you. You are such a gorgeous vlog watch Sherrie. xxxxx

    • @OllieandBella
      @OllieandBella  Год назад

      Firstly - YAY go you for knitting socks, see I knew you could do it!!! Yes, I remember when I was first learning to knit socks and knit in general and I would get myself so worked about it, I'd tense up and even give myself a headache! BUT - like you I was determined to accomplish it and so glad I pushed myself out of my comfort zone.
      That's great you want to sweaters and I'm sure you'll accomplish that as well, maybe start off with something basic. I loved knitting the Felix as it's a beautiful simple pattern which has a little bit of detail. Aww thank you for your lovely kind comments 🥰💕✨

    I have just read The It Girl by Ruth Ware and One Step Too Far by Lisa Gardner which I would recommend as 2 good reads. Two thirds of the way through The Second Sleep by Robert Harris which is also very good. I have not read one of his before. The concept of this book is really interesting.

    The problem with heat has to do with humidity. 25 degrees in one place is not the same as 25 degrees in another place with different humidity. Here the 25 is just gross. I'm so happy the heat wave seemed to end today.
