It's that time of year again... time to get cozy and snuggle up in a comfy place and just knit or crochet. Dinner? Meh. There's cereal. We've got gifts to make! Or not. But either way, it's the perfect excuse to do nothing else all evening, amiright?

 So let's unpack this cozy November box, shall we?

AUDIO BOOK IDEAS WHILE YOU KNIT

The Night Circus -- Super intriguing book about a magical circus that only shows up at night. I love the way the story is told from multiple perspectives in multiple points in time, all blended into one story.

 

The Graveyard -- How does Neil Gaiman come up with his plots? The Graveyard is a brilliantly written story that reminds me a bit of The Nightmare Before Christmas, but in a way more endearing and heartbreaking way.

 

QUICK KNITS IDEAS

One Hour Mitts-- (free on Ravelry by Natalja) whip up a pair of these in just one evening.

 

Garter Gaiter -- (free from Purl Soho) another quick knit you could knock out in one movie or under!

 

I hope you enjoy your cozy box and your November. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
