As soon as the temperature drops, all I want to do is stock up on yarn and start knitting. It’s hard to get excited about making hats and scarves when it’s over 100 degrees outside, but when those temperatures drop (and in Texas I’ll even take a drop into the lower 90’s, anything less than 100) I start dreaming of all the new projects I want to start making.

Cooler weather is the perfect time for a little self-care inventory. Giving my skin a little extra moisture and maybe a refresh for my hair. Are you ready for a little self-care inventory?

Head to toe, how are things going? I did my own self-care check lately, and it was literally from my head, thanks to E-Salon, to my toes, thanks to Kerasal.

I’ve spent more time out in the sun this summer than I usually do, and I can tell it’s been rough on my hair. I was ready for a hair refresh. I often have a hard time describing my hair color, and usually go with a combination of blonde/brown/red. Lucky for me, E-salon completely understands that no two people are the same. Their made-to-order, custom hair color is individually crafted by a colorist to achieve your ultimate color goal. For me, I wanted something close to my natural color, with just a hint more warmth to it.

No premixed stuff here. Your personal colorist will factor in your color goals, most-recent photos (I sent a selfie), profile, and hair history to formulate a color that’s just for you down to the last drop. When you receive your unique-to-you color, your shipment also includes personalized instructions, and everything you need to color at home.

This is all about self-care, and you deserve the absolute best hair color. E-salon is committed to creating it for you.

With my updated hair color I was ready to continue the self-care inventory. If we’re going head to toe, the next stop were my lips. Do you get dry lips during the fall and winter? I always keep lip gloss on hand in the fall. Grande Cosmetics Lip Plumping Gloss not only offers both short and long-term hydrating benefits, but it also instantly plumps lips in 3-5 minutes with no stings attached!

Next stop? A new scarf to keep my neck warm. I picked up this super soft yarn not knowing exactly what I would make with it, but I knew it felt so good against my skin that it would be some kind of scarf.

In between knitting sessions, one of my favorite ways to practice self-care is with a good book. Honestly, it doesn’t get much cozier than yarn and a book. A Fool’s Paradise, by Robyn Williams, is a provocative and imaginative tale with a host of memorable characters in a relentless quest for love, fulfillment, fame and fortune. (PS – there is also a film on the horizon!)

Back to school has always meant that I start picking up more hand sanitizer. I love sending big bottles with my kids to help out in their classroom, but sometimes those large bottles are hard to find. Born Basic Hand sanitizer comes in three sizes: 33 oz (perfect for classrooms or offices), 16.9 oz (great to have at home), and 3 oz (purse or travel size). This hand sanitizer glides on easily and doesn’t leave a sticky residue or have a strong alcohol smell.

Continue use for up to 3 to 6 months for full effect.

Rows 1-6 can be knit in standard ribbing. Or knit through back loops for more pronounced and tighter knitting. (Knitting through back loops on rows 1-6 is what I prefer for this scarf and is what is pictured.)

The slip stitch in row 8 is slipped as if to purl with the yarn held in front of the work.
