Oh gosh, sobirds. My mug cabinet is silly. But I think the one I reach for the most is this one by local artist Angie Pickman (Rural Pearl Studio).
Morning coffee just hits better with these li'l birbs.
I actually read a variant on that that was quite good: www.codiecrowley.com/books

We loved getting our Imagination Library books - so thoughtfully curated!

A knitted triangular shawl alternating garter and stockinette texture, and tonal burgundy yarn with silver/ pink sparkly handspun contrast. Pattern is called Cheap Date shawl.
A simple red cable texture hat. Pattern is Jason's Cashmere Hat. Just a stash buster.
A very Bubblegum pink shawl, color fading between a pale and bright pink. It is primarily stockinette, with slip stitch and eyelet sections to break it up. I think this pattern was called May I Borrow This Please, or something like that. I can look it up on request.
A large rectangular shawl in lace. Main color is silver, and it runs through a contrast color sequence of pinks and reds, ending at a couple shades of Grey. Pattern is Softly Spoken.
It's reds and pinks for #ShowMeYourKnits this week, and it turns out I really love red/burgundy, so these are just the most recent FOs in those colors I found.
The Bubblegum pink one was a kiddo request, in case you looked at this sequence and thought one of those was not quite like the others π.
Yeah, I'm refusing to watch until the whole thing has dropped because I think that half season release model is ridiculous.

Quote posting this so I don't lose it because this sounds incredibly my jam.

Listen, Listen by Phyllis Gershator. Has always been a delight to read even when it was in heavy rotation, and we still revisit it periodically at 5.

Also just watched Kiki's Delivery Service for the first time recently and was delighted to see the original source of this gif, which really captures a Whole Mood.
