Knitting, mental health, and cozy creative chaos.
Schizoaffective peer, NAMI facilitator, anxious knitter.
Longform knit & chat videos on YouTube: Ignite Your Inner Artist.
6/6
If any of this sounds like your kind of weird, you’re welcome here. 💛

You can find me as “Ignite Your Inner Artist” on YouTube, and as innerartiststudio in the usual places as I slowly get my life together across platforms.

Say hi, tell me what you’re making, or just lurk and knit — all valid.

Here on Bluesky, expect:

pattern + project talk

behind-the-scenes of filming

mental health reflections in smaller bites

occasional “my brain did WHAT today?” posts with dark Gen X humor

Basically: the in-between moments you don’t see on YouTube.

Online, my “home base” is YouTube:

Ignite Your Inner Artist 🔥

That’s where I post:

knit & chat videos

mental health + creativity talks

cozy vlogs from my little forest apartment

If you like longform, slow, “sit and knit with me while we talk about life” energy, that’s where to go.

I’m a NAMI peer support facilitator and Peer-to-Peer teacher, and also a disabled creative just trying to get through the day with yarn, coffee, and my service dog, Cora.

I care a lot about:

non-toxic productivity

realistic goals for low-spoon days

treating creativity as care, not punishment

What you’ll see here:
🧶 Knitting + yarn obsession

🧠 Mental health + neurospicy brain talk (schizoaffective, PTSD, panic disorder, the fun bundle)

🎨 Creativity, gentle goal-setting, and actually-finishable projects

If your brain is loud but your hands like making things, you’re in the right place.

One of my favorite books! I haven’t read it in years. It is now added to my reread list.
