Waylynn Sunglasses Case
Hello lovelies!
In Alberta, summer only lasts a minute. We get a few weeks of warm sun, warm light winds and cloudless skies. Albertans make sure to soak up much of it as possible when we get it.
Albertans' summers!
This summer has had cooler winds, rain, cloudy skies and the temperature is between 18 to 22 degrees celsius for most of it.
The past couple of weeks have been filled with hot sun, beach days, ice cream and cold drinks.
It’s been exactly what my family and I needed …. I mean, we really needed it!
Listening to my boys giggle uncontrollably, seeing my husband putter around with tasks he loves doing, having wonderful conversations with my mother-in-law and enjoying a glass of wine or two with papa – it really does make my heart so full!
What does your perfect summer day look like?
I am not ready for summer to end and school to start. I have started shifting crochet patterns to fall and winter items but I can’t resist one or two more summer patterns!
Lets just say, I am terrible with just throwing my sunglasses in my bag and going on my way and I don’t recommend you do that either!
I do suggest you make a Waylynn Sunglasses Case to protect your sunglasses and I’m going to share the crochet pattern with you.
