Best of 2018: 52 Lazy Sundays
Dear Ann,
It’s kind of scary to look back at an entire year’s worth of Lazy Sunday posts and realize: we spent that much time watching stuff on the teevee! How did we get a lick of work done?
Thank goodness we were knitting the whole way, so we have something to show for it. It’s not being a couch potato if it helps you power through a lot of stockinette.
Whenever you’re in search of knittertainment, old or new, you can access all our Lazy Sunday posts right here.
A big thank you to all the readers who’ve emailed Knit to This and Lazy Sunday suggestions to us. Keep ’em coming! As the old saying goes, a British murder mystery shared is a British murder mystery doubled.
Love,
Kay
Thank _you_ for all the great suggestions. I am currently totally entralled in a couple of things on Acorn TV. I love Acorn! The Australian, very well-done soap opera, A Place to Call Home is an epic. It would provide many lazy Sundays entertainment. It has six long seasons of episodes. I am also enjoying Blood, which is an Irish original for Acorn. Did father kill mother?
I have been adoring Acorn too for the last 1 1/2-2 yrs. and gifted a 1 yr. subscription to my sis-in-law for Christmas. Currently watching Blood too and not only have to look away at times, but have actually stopped for a few days b/c I can’t take the suspense. Other Irish ones that I liked – Acceptable Risk and Striking Out.
Thanks for the new suggestions, Julie! I have taken a break from Blood as well for a few days. It is an immersive experience.
Yes love Acorn..especially the “Brokenwood ” series !! Happy knitting.
I watched Sabrina with the original cast, the other night and fell in love all over again. I adore all of your posts and most of the suggestions. I’m having surgery on Thursday and the hospital allows for electronic devices. I’m only going to be an inpatient for 2-3 days but any distraction will help.
May you have a wonderful new year ❤️
Happy New Year to you both,love your site and seeing you in Knit Stars 3
It’s Sunday? Ack!!!!!!!!!!!!! @@,./’;,./’;
The dog bed is so fabulous! (Not to mention dog and jacket, of course.)
I’ve enjoyed the recommendations all year. Thank you! And yes, what is that sweater Olive is wearing? Is that a belly band with buttons? Love it.
Happiest New Year wishes to all!
I don’t feel so bad about all my nights on the couch in front of the TV now! I have gotten a fair amount of knitting and stitching done.
At our house we’re enjoying (via DVD) the CB Strike series – based on Robert Galbraith (aka JK Rowling)’s detective. Highly recommend!
I signed up for BritBox a couple of months ago so that I could see Olivia Colman in The Rev, and now I’m still poking around and watching this and that. I don’t watch a lot, and I can’t knit while watching (audiobooks are ideal for my knitting), but there always seems to be One More Thing to watch before cancelling.
Isn’t Rev wonderful? Funny and depressing at the same time.
