Star blankets. Different colors every time. Same amount of joy every time.
I make these because I genuinely cannot stop, and somewhere out there people and pets are living their best lives wrapped up in a star. That's enough for me.

Craft doesn't always have to start at the yarn store. This bag started with a trip to the local DYI store, some sisal and surveyors twine... humble, utilitarian materials that turned into something I actually love. No pattern, no plan, just hands and instinct and whatever was around. Some of my favorite makes have come from asking "what if I just tried this?"

Sometimes I don't want to design. I don't want to problem-solve or swatch or rip back. Sometimes I just want to make something. To let my hands do something gentle while the world is loud.
So I made a blanket. Simple stitches, soft yarn, trans pride colors... because somewhere out there, someone needs to know they're thought of. That someone is holding them in love, stitch by stitch, even when the world makes it feel like they have to fight just to exist.
Trans rights are human rights. And right now that fight is exhausting and heavy and real. I see you. Much love to you all.🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵

Ruffles. Tiny feet. Maximum joy.
These are Ellie's Spring Socks, a test knit for the delightful@hugoandellie and if you need a sign that summer has fully arrived, I present to you this peachy little ankle sock with the most perfect mint ruffle cuff that has ever existed on a toddler-sized foot.
I cannot tell you how satisfying it is to knit something this small and this cheerful. The whole thing just radiates happy. The ruffle. The contrast toe and heel. The fact that a tiny human is going to wear these and be objectively the most stylish person in any room they enter.
This is what test knitting is all about, getting to be part of something sweet before the rest of the world gets to see it.
Keep an eye on @hugoandellie for the pattern release because you are going to want these.

She's crafty. And she's knitting.
This is the She's Crafty Kerchief, a test knit for the wonderfully talented@hookmountainhandmade and can we just take a moment for this yarn? by in that wild multicolored splash of everything at once, doing exactly what it wants to do through that gorgeous diamond lace structure.
The pattern and the yarn are in a full conversation here and honestly I just held the needles and let them talk.
A kerchief is such a perfectly whimsical thing to knit. Small enough to be quick, interesting enough to keep you engaged, and the kind of finished object that makes people ask where you got it and then watch your face light up when you say you made it yourself.
Keep an eye on and all the gorgeous patterns they create.

Cool summer mornings, beach nights, aggressive AC...this shawl has me covered.
You know how it goes. It's Summer, it is 85 degrees outside, and the moment you step into any building it's suddenly Antarctica. Hand knits aren't just a winter thing, they're a year-round thing, and the Fernando Shawl by is proof.
This beauty is lightweight enough to stuff in your bag but substantial enough to actually save you when the AC is set to "meat locker." Draped over your shoulders at an outdoor evening event, wrapped around you on a cool summer morning with your coffee, thrown over a sundress for a beach night... it does it all without breaking a sweat. Literally.
Three yarns came together to make this magic: Dream in Color Butterfly BFL Cash Silk in Watch My Rising for that luscious stripe section, Hawthorne Fi*****ng in Dorothy, and Knit Picks Palette in Kumquat Heather for that warm orange lace border. Lightweight, drapey, and honestly a little bit of a showstopper.
This is why I knit year-round. You can't buy this in a store.

This one row lace scarf in Noro Sock Garden is about as simple as knitting gets. One row. Repeated. Over and over, until something extraordinary happens almost without you noticing. sometimes the pattern is not the point, neither is the finished product. That is the gift of mindful knitting. Not the complicated chart or the intricate construction. Just your hands, your yarn, and the quiet rhythm of a stitch you know so well it stops requiring thought and starts requiring only presence. There is something deeply restorative about that, about choosing the simple thing on purpose. About trusting that repetition is not boring, it is grounding. That the value of a make is not always in its complexity but sometimes in the peace it gave you while you made it. Row after row. Blue into purple into olive into black and back again. Somewhere in there was a whole lot of breathing, and a mind that got to rest for a while.

June is here and I have feelings about it.
This bag started as a craft project and ended up being a little bit of a love letter. To community. To visibility. To the version of myself that took a long time to let exist out loud.
I am q***r. I am disabled. I am a maker who has spent most of her life finding ways to create beauty in a world that does not always make space for people like me. And every June I am reminded that Pride is not just a party... it is a declaration that we are here, we are whole, and we are not going anywhere.
Fiber arts saved me in ways I cannot fully articulate. It gave my hands something to do when my body was difficult to live in. It gave me community when I needed it most. It gave me a way to make something beautiful on days when beautiful felt very far away.
This rainbow bag is small. It is also everything.
To every q***r person, every disabled person, every disabled q***r person who has ever felt like the world was not built for them... it was not. But we build anyway. We make anyway. We show up anyway.
That is its own kind of Pride.
