Also so stoked my sister asked me to crochet the Jason Momoa cardigan for her birthday gift 😍

No lie I offered to buy her a luxury handbag and she turned it down and suggested the sweater 😮

“It’s a crop, right? Quicker!” 🧶

Realizing that I was operating under the false belief that knitting this plus size crop would go quickly 😅

The “huge storm” were supposed to have in Seattle was disappointingly brief. 😩⛈️

The giant Woobles collector boxes are genius. I wanted the LOTR one then I saw the Harry Potter one 😅

Cruising through sweater #2 of the year. If knitting production is any indication of the stress one is under, I fear mine is very obvious 😥🧶

How to get attention when your mom is a knitter 🧶

Just getting around to digitizing my dad’s old photos and just wanted to say….

The next time you feel guilty about taking a selfie or ridiculous about posting a picture of your knitting, just remember that my dad easily has 30+ vintage photos of dead fish

It may feel weird or somehow improper to talk about your art or your writing, but we need it. It can’t be wall-to-wall nightmare all the time. Art is both counterweight and context. It’s escape and enlightenment and a mirror of our own exasperation. We need it. We NEED it. Keep showing us.

I have a first date tomorrow. I agreed to “Friday” forgetting that its Valentines Day 🤦🏻‍♀️

Dear goddess, let this be normal. 🙏🏻
