Bio
In 2015 the craft bug bit hard but as a newbie crafter, I wasn’t so confident and I had a hard time getting started. I started this blog as a way to motivate myself, other novice crafters and confirmed crafters who’d been wanting to try something but hadn’t gotten around to it. Life is too short not to make the world a more beautiful place.
I’d always wanted to knit but kinda-sort-of-not-really knew how, but given how much yarn I’d inherited from people who’d given up, I decided to try that first and I find myself delightfully tangled there still. I’ve found a wonderful community of knitters here with all sorts of savvy advice and I’m amazed at all the progress I’ve made with their help.
Like any good adventure, this has had some interesting twists and turns. For instance, I've started knitting my own tops and socks out of the most sustainable materials I can get my hands on in order to step out from under the shadow of fast fashion.
I'll post the free patterns I'm working on, in case you want to try your hand at them.
Blogging is a mis/adventure all of it's own, especially as English isn't my first language. Friendly advice and feedback is always welcome, while hostility and toxic interactions are not – ain’t nobody got time for that, not when there’s so much crafting to do! Everyone is entitled to create the kind of content they want, this happens to be mine so please ask before re-posting.
