Little Sully in his 1st birthday sweater 🥲 My hope is that I can remember to get an equally adorable video on his last day of being 1 in the same sweater to see how much he has grown. And I want to keep up with the tradition as the years go on!

What cute traditions to you have for your little one's birthday? ❤️

This entire knit was a practice in ✨trusting the process✨ but it turned out SO WELL 😭

SHE IS FINISHED!!! My magnum opus, The Olga Jacket. I had the privilege of testing this incredible knit and I am overjoyed with the final outcome.

I was slow to get the ends woven in, slower to get some okay pictures taken (forgive me, I have a 1 year old climbing my legs most of the day). This is going to be a staple in my wardrobe.

I can't wait to tell the world, "Thanks, I made it!" 😍

HELP do I be responsible and work on finishing up a test knit (I'm sooooo close) or do I start a new cozy WIP in some very cool yarn I just got from the .2020 anniversary sale??

I am in training for the next two days at work to get a new type of therapy certification and I will have a bit of downtime during the lectures. Its nice to have something simple to pick away at for some enhanced crafty concentration 🤪

Pretty sure I deserve an award, not for this pattern specifically, but because I actually turned out a pattern from idea to publication in a week. With an almost 10 month old and being back to work, that's a big deal 🤣

This crochet cuddly carrot seriously takes an hour or less to whip up, and is the perfect addition to your kiddos' Easter basket this year! And the best part? The pattern will cost you nothing. Stash dive or buy your preferred chenille type yarn, and that's the only investment needed!

I bought my Premier Parfait Chunky from in Abbotsford, just sayin 😏

Trying something new here! The goal is to share one video per week documenting my progress with a gigantic crochet project I've been "working" on for over 10 years 🥲 And an even bigger goal attached to this is two publish two more crochet patterns in the next few months!! Hint hint: 🐙

Just a friendly and silly reminder that you too can adorn your friends and family with ridiculous fishy themed toques with the pattern set 🎣

I don't sell physical items anymore usually because my heart has gravitated toward lighter weight yarns and those just don't knit up quickly 🥲 As much as I do believe in supporting local art, I respect the fact that the math does not math when calculating a price for one of these beauties. That being said, if you reeeeaaaallly want one of these finished items, and are curious about the price, we can chat and see if it's right for you!!
