Yarn and cats. Big believer that the world is better with kind and loving people in it. Oh, I also make chocolate.

From your very first day alive to your last, I'm glad I got to figure out life with you Otto. You could be spiteful as hell when you wanted to be, your belly fur was like touching the softest cloud and your giant paws were surprisingly light when standing on my organs. Love you Ottobot.

My hometown is having bananagate and a man had to make a public apology to the 711 employees. I think they're related. I have yet to find the original post. 🤣

After two months of work, this past Saturday I got to see the whole look come together. Dress, apron, hat, sweater, and collar were all made by me! I also crocheted all the cream trim on the dress and hat, and crocheted the brown trim on the apron. #egl #sewing #knitting #crochet

Y'all ever jump into a project and not think about the time, energy and monetary investment? It's fine, I'm fine, just throwing every fiber and fabric related skill I have (and ones I don't) into this project. #knitting #sewing #hatmaking #crochet #needlefelting

I'm doing a krampus themed event today and my bangs are clearly not here for my refusal to be spooky in any way.

My favorite crochet hooks are the clover amour hooks, which are coincidentally also my cats favorite crochet hooks. Teeth marks come courtesy of his "design" choices.

My hand knit socks always look so tiny when laid out on my desk. I really wish I could remember who I bought this blue/purple yarn from. The solid blue in the cuffs and toes is knit picks stroll.
