Growing up, pamphlets in my church encouraged people to vote republican. Voting republican was "God's" way. Democrats were evil baby-killing heathens. My desire to please God was used to coerce my vote. Don't let anyone use your faith to coerce you. Your vote belongs to you, not the church.

"Beginners shouldn't charge for their work." Actually, the idea of "You have to give free labor when you're still learning & gaining confidence" is bullshit. You might increase prices as you learn, but go ahead & ignore anything that tells you that you have to work for free. #crochet #virkkaus

I write poetry & other writings on Substack. I'd love to have you subscribe.
My vibe: Finding freedom from religious trauma, channeling the Divine Feminine, setting boundaries, calming perfectionist anxiety.

Finding peace online:
I post to share what I've created. I don't rush my creative process in order to post.
I don't post out of obligation to produce enough.
I write my posts & plan networking goals before opening apps.
As always, DM me if you'd like any of these scrunchies. Have a wonderful day.

I took these pictures awhile ago. I think it's really cool and fun that we have a small Lego museum here in Ruokolahti. I hope you enjoy the pics and they bring back some fun memories. Have a wonderful day. #ruokolahti #eteläkarjala #lego #museum

I own more crochet hooks, but tend to use the same 1 or 2 for almost everything. Anyone else have a favorite hook? I've only used metal hooks. Do you prefer metal, plastic, or wooden hooks?
Some fun scrunchies I made. DM if interested. #scrunchie #virkkaus #virkattu #hiusdonitsi #crochet

Random facts about me: I'm from Butte, Montana. I live in southeast Finland. I met my husband on a language exchange website. I'm still a beginner in Finnish. I always wear my hair down, yet I specialize in making scrunchies. Weird, but somehow perfect.

I decided to share some of my writings. Everywhere I dwell online, I want to create spaces where people feel empowered and encouraged, where I'm thriving.

Have you ever been crocheting & thought to yourself: Purity culture teachings are patriarchal, misogynistic bullshit. Fuck the patriarchy.
If so, we likely have lots in common.
Domestic violence, religious trauma survivor turned pro-choice, childless by choice.

This scrunchie is equipped with an infinite amount of superpowers.
Twist to the right, you can fly.
Twist to the left for invisibility.
I'm joking. :)
It's a scrunchie.
Yes, you'll look fabulous. Yes, you deserve to treat yourself.

Handmade in Ruokolahti, Finland. DM to order.

I designed this flower scrunchie. I'm really proud of it. Now, I just need to work on drafting the pattern.

Warning: While wearing this scrunchie, you might experience an extremely low tolerance for misogynistic, patriarchal bullshit, & may have this awakening realization that you are, indeed, a Goddess.
Well, I hope so. It's just a scrunchie. DM me to order.
