Farmhouse Knitting Podcast

By This Yellow Farmhouse

Dayna is a self-described homebody with a case of the cozies prioritizing slow living and finding more time to sit and knit. She uprooted from the suburbs to an 1830's farmhouse in the woods of northern Illinois with her husband and 3 girls. Although she doesn't have it all figured out, she's sharing her experiences in becoming unbusy, creating cozy, and finding small pockets of time to sit and knit.

Hygge Your Kitchen for Winter

Hygge Your Kitchen for Winter

Hey guys! I'm Dayna, a knitting designer and mom of 3 girls with a case of the cozies, coming to you from my 1830's farmhouse in Illinois. Today I'm chatting about how I'm getting my kitchen cozy for wintertime.

Kitchens can feel cold, especially in winter. We have freezing cold tile floors, appliances, and not enough warmth in my opinion! So I'm sharing the cozy facelift I gave ours while we sit and knit together!

November Christmas Decorating

November Christmas Decorating

Today I decorated for Christmas. I didn't mean to do it, but we just couldn't stop! Instead of following the calendar and fighting the urge to wait for Black Friday, we embraced the snowmen and jingle bells and learned something important along the way.
