IT’S OFFICIAL: It’s Sweater Weather.
⠀⠀
The heating’s on, my daily tea intake has risen to a mighty 10 cups a day and I’m wearing as many layers as physically possible (Joey style)....Luckily I don’t think you can tell? You know me, always subtle 😉

Stay warm loves!

Just sitting here waiting for 🍂 Sweater Weather 🍂 wondering what colour scarf to knit next. What colour should *we* go for? (Swipe to see the options)
⠀⠀
Ps if you fancy it, there’s a poll (or 2) in my stories to help choose a name for the jumper I posted about last week (see my last post) the suggestions were incredible thank you! It took me forever to narrow them down but I think we’ve got some corkers! Thank you! 👌🏼💖

Guys I need your help! I’ve got a new jumper coming out this month and I absolutely cannot think of a name for it. I’ve been working on the bugger since January and I’ve been referring to it as ‘The November Jumper’ (because the pattern will be free in our November yarn subscription box 🤷🏼‍♀️😂🙈) and now that’s all my brain will call it 🤦🏼‍♀️
⠀⠀
PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR NAME SUGGESTIONS for this jumper. Winner gets a £30 LAD gift voucher (I reserve my right to not pick a winner at all if your suggestions are as shit as mine 😜) What would you call this glorious chunky knit beauty? It’s all textured and cosy with a nice neck and stuff 🤷🏼‍♀️. P.S. swipe across to see it better. The first picture doesn’t show the jumper very well but my skin looks incredible so I went with it 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 P.P.S. Names of some of our other products are ‘Dreamy Oversized Cardigan’ + ‘Boatneck Jumper’ so you see, the bar is very, VERY low. I’m not expecting miracles. Thank you! 😘

Harry just reminded me that it’s been over 2 weeks since we’ve chatted about The Pompom Jumper and over a month since we’ve had a ‘Harry and I’ picture together and you know me... I just do whatever he tells me to do, soooo ... 🤷🏼‍♀️ here we are again.
🐶
Hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend ma babes 💖

This was supposed to be a nice cosy picture of the new limited edition leopard print cushions we’re doing but Harry decided to nap right in the middle of my shot and, I’ll be honest - I then ran out of time, light, energy and shits to give. Swipe across if you want to see them properly 👉🏼
.
They’re new knit kits - also, I accidentally named them all after terrible soft drinks you’d likely find at a 2 star all-inclusive hotel in Spain (Orange Fizz, Pink Wham, Lime Pop and Lemon Zing) I considered naming them after LAD team members but a) that’s gross and b) we couldn’t decide who’d be named after what colour combo - ‘the Lauren’ would be the pink one obvs... what colour combo would you choose?...
