Ryan and I skipped over to Oarai beach yesterday to take full advantage of our extra day off. It's a pretty small beach town and when we arrived the next bus to the beach wasn't for another hour, so we just walked. It was a
gorgeous day!
The beach was mostly rocks with patches of sandy spots. I found some lovely little broken shells that were washed smooth by the ocean. They're pearly and pretty and I I have good intentions about making some type of craft with them.
I also enjoyed using my new straw hat! I look a little crazy in the picture but it's the only pic of me sporting the hat. :)
And last, but certainly not least, my new stash of yarn! I know it's summer and that I should be getting summer colors...but I just
love, love, love fall colors. Especially mustard yellow and brown together. The red yarn is for a different project, but I think I will knit (or attempt to crochet even?!) a winter hat for myself.
Ravelry has lots of hat patterns (free!) I've been wanting to try.
