Rustle Crow requested a new scarf to wear for @fiberwitchfestival.bsky.social 🥹 If only I could knit this fast for myself! Will we see you at the show?

It’s such a luxury to eat eggs that were laid just this morning. To pat your fluffy little domestic velociraptor on the head and say thank you for the gifts your butt bestows 🥹🙏🐓🥚🍳 #backyardchickens

🧶 What’s one show you always put on in the background thinking you’ll just listen and knit but then don’t actually knit because you can’t stop watching? 😆

For me lately it’s Wheel Of Time - The set design and costuming is SO GOOD 😭 Are you seeing Alanna’s moon phases hair adornment?!

I’m deconstructing some of the elements from the High Priestess card for a new fabric design I’m working on — still early stages but I love it so far!

Nori was definitely helping me take pictures of a new thing I designed 🥹

And here’s what the Pixie Sigil fabric could look like! 🤩

I made a fabric design out of Pamela Colman Smith’s art signature that she used to sign all the cards in the iconic Smith-Waite tarot deck back in 1909.

It’s the ultimate “if you know, you know” tarot fabric 🤓

Playing with an idea for a new fabric design that’s very subtle but still witchy AF — If you know, you know!

It’s Pamela Colman Smith’s signature mark that she used to sign each tarot card from the iconic Smith-Waite deck that she illustrated in 1909.

I would once again like to thank Creatsy for allowing me to manifest my dream spaces via their interior design mockups 🙏😍

This is my newest surface pattern design. I might call it “Oak Father Preserve You” in honor of our favorite Papa Bear from the forests of Faerûn 😏🤤
