This resonates more than ever now 🧶 Here’s to finding solace and self care in our #knitting .

#knitsky
A white piece of card stock sits atop a knitted shawl. The paper has the following written on it in pointed pen calligraphy: Knit on, with confidence and hope, through all crises. - Elizabeth Zimmerman. The shawl is a lovely mint green with thin stripes in a light pink that contain bobbles of the same colour. It’s squishy and soft and oh so warm.

Today I am a glitter-slick stripper, strutting my stuff to a thousand hair-band ballads. The world is my pole, and I dance around it, untouchable. My underwear manifests prosperity. In small bills. So. Much. Bon. Jovi.
