Last night, we had a big tree fall on both my car and my husband's car. They are both pretty damaged. We will also have to deal with getting the tree removed.
We have also been without power for 12 hours, with no ETA on restoration, so we are likely going to lose all of our groceries in the fridge and freezers.

If you are able to help, purchasing a pattern on my Etsy or Ravelry pages would help immensely. If every person who follows the page bought 1 pattern, that would help me pay my deductible for insurance.

Patterns are on sale 25% off now until the end of the month. All help is appreciated immensely. ❤️

May 10: The streak continues.... barely!

I'm still feeling under the weather, and I am definitely feeling emotionally attached to my yarn - even if I lack the energy to do anything with it.
Can my yarn become a sentient caretaker? That would be great.

May 9: oops!

I've been under the weather the last couple of days and completely forgot to post. My bad. I've been resting as much as I can because tonight, I will be at the Community CraftHaus Open Haus from 530-7! Come register for my class, see the resident artists doing their thing, and meet some really cool people!

May the 4th be with you! Today is Star Wars day, and Star Wars happens to be one of my favorite movie franchises.

Show me your crochet stash that is out of this world, or show me some inspiration pictures for your craft room where space is not a restriction!!!

My inspiration picture is below, because my craft room is not in a shareable state.

May 3: Posting every day for a month.

What is the best selling item I make?

THESE ridiculous things. They are a crowd favorite and customizable. This is also the pattern that sells the greatest for me. It's my #1 pattern on Etsy and Ravelry, and my #1 seller at markets and for custom orders.

Ask me how many I made last year - I would love to tell you!

May 2: Posting every day for a month.

This was a project I made for my therapist before my last appointment with her.
She was a practicum student, so her services were free, and now that she is finished with school, she's moving home.
I'll probably never see her again, but I wanted to make her something to remind her of her time in Kansas.
It was a small token of my gratitude for helping me get through a very difficult time, and she loved it!!!
