living is like crocheting patterns to someone else's design
but while one works
one's thoughts are free 
and as the ivory hook dives in and out amongst the wool
all the enchanted princes that ever existed
are free to stroll through their parks
the crochet of things ....
a pause ....
nothing

from the book of disquiet by fernando pessoa

☼ summer break

we love staying at my best friends house
in Andalucia
evening trips to hillside towns
winding up cobbled streets
past white washed buildings
watching the sunset
drinking tinto
dipping our toes in the water at Sancti Petri
collecting stones
falling in love with honey rum
and best of all
knitting by the pool!
