These are just a few of the things I think of when I think of comfort. (Breaking the rules with captions. Like usual.)
The swing my husband built me is one of my favorite comfort things. Just the act of quietly swinging is soothing.
Being by the water, particularly when the waves are rolling in has always brought me comfort. This is Lake Michigan on a particularly turbulent day.
So has the scent of lilacs.
And cuddly kitties.
I love this lantern. It’s warm glow always makes me feel a little more peaceful than I did, before I lit the candle on the inside.
Knitting is so comforting – both the act of knitting and listening to the clacking of the needles of someone else doing it.
And there’s probably nothing more comforting than being all cwtched up in sweaters that my mama knitted for me.
Here’s a closeup of some of the main patterns. Also, that one on the bottom left isn’t that orange in real life. The actual color is how it looks up above. It was just really sunny out when I took them out to photograph them.
Be sure to check the other authors’ posts to see what they find comforting.
Sweater porn omg.
LOL! Sweater porn! I love it!
Your mother does lovely cables! How wonderful to be wrapped in such love! Lake Michigan in any weather – *sigh* Lilacs too. I love it!
Honestly, all of her knitting is just amazing. She’s phenomenal. I love wearing things she’s made me. Makes me feel all cozy and loved. 🙂 I adore Lake Michigan, but Superior will always be my happy place. 😀
Cozy and loved – yep! That is how I feel about Grandma’s quilts. There is just something about an item that is hand made with love.
Superior is amazing! Good memories. But, after spending 30 years on the west coast – the Pacific has some awesomeness too – Lake Michigan is . . . HOME!
I misread your first line as “Crazy and loved” 😀 Ooops!
LOL that is okay. Aren’t we all a little crazy too? I know I am.
