DIY Spa Day: Pamper Yourself With 10 Cleansing Knits

Print This Post Print This Post

With summer right around the corner, swim suits and jean shorts cannot be eluded for much longer. Don’t get me wrong. I love summer. It’s my favorite season of the entire year. However, the first couple weeks of sunshine and warmth are always a little anxiety-inducing. Showing off my translucent, winter-worn skin to the world is not exactly my idea of “summer fun.”

This year, however, I’m prepared. I’ve devised a plan to achieve that coveted soft and supple glow — all with the help of my knitting needles. This weekend I’m rewarding myself with a DIY spa day complete with exfoliation, lathering, and everything else that comes with a basket full of lotions and potions. The best part about this little spa day is that everything I’m using to prepare my skin for sunshine was knit using a pattern from AllFreeKnitting.

Ken “Bear” Iddins of Buffalo Hats reveals his unique eight-foot custom Six- Pac shell model with an extremely custom, tricked-out, and modified interior.  Are those really stained glass windows ? Many of us have dreamed of designing and building our own truck camper.  One moment you’re sitting in your dinette looking at the kitchen thinking, “Why didn’t they put another cabinet right there?” and the next you’re drawing a truck camper floor plan on a napkin.  We have certainly inked a few ideas this way over the years.  Then the reality the of cost and time involved in such an endeavor hit us.  If truck campers could be built in Photoshop, we would make the world’s greatest truck camper .  Until then, we’re probably just dreaming.
