knitknitknit

knitknitknit. all day long. knitknitknit while i sing this song.
gonna knit a scarf. gonna make it long.
gonna knitknitknit while i sing this song.

no waves to be found anywhere today. took the camera out for a minor but was feeling rather uninspired due to the rain and winds.

me and kat went for a tour around the arts and industrial and found some amazing shops. a few places worth mention:

Spell- gorgeous jewelery handmade right out in the back of the shop. the necklaces they make are unreal. so original.

Goddess of Babylon- some of the best leather bags and boots to be found. they make the kind of pieces you can wear with jeans and a plain white tee and feel dressed up.

NCS- home of my all-time favourite fish and long boards. they produce Takayama and Bear surfboards. Evan, the guy who works the store front, is the most patient man on the planet. i make a weekly visit to the store to stare at the boards and bring friends around to see the place.i am also secretly hoping they will eventually offer me a job. i also just love the smell of a new board. mmmmm...epoxy....

Byron Bay Gourmet Pies- you can go directly to their factory and get fresh out of the oven pies for only $3! plus all the stores around them smell like pie. mmmmmm...pie...

i always find it refreshing to be around others who are creative. especially when i am feeling uninspired myself. kat and i dropped in on our amazingly talented friend Yogesha (aka Yoshimitsu aka Mixmaster Yogs aka Woogie aka Bear) who works behind the spell shop as a seamstress. homegirl has talent coming out the yingyang. i think ill just start going out to her studio and hanging out to soak up the positive vibes and unique energy.

anywho...im feeling newly inspired and invigorated to create something new. with the help of my new roommate Kat.

peace and rainbows!
