This weekend, I broke my yarn diet and went to a local yarn store. (I bought a cute hat kit with squishy yarn that was decently priced). When I walked in, an employee walked up, greeted me, and asked if I had been there before. About thirty seconds later, another employee walked up, greeted me,… Continue reading Yarn Store Hermit

Sprig Stitch Crochet Baby Blanket
Hi friends! I wanted to show the baby blanket that I recently finished! The sprig stitch is made using double crochet stitches (treble crochet in UK terms). It is a pretty stitch to use if you're wanting to experiment and try something different. I was inspired to use this stitch after watching a video tutorial… Continue reading Sprig Stitch Crochet Baby Blanket
A Quick Update So I’m Not Late
Hi friends! Hope you had a nice weekend. Ours was great - it was warm and sunny. We spent a decent amount of time outside - walked on South Congress Saturday afternoon and at a park Sunday.

I always find it hilarious that I never pull my back while exercising, but it always happens… Continue reading A Crafty, Restful Weekend

I'm far from those days now, but part of me wants to wear… Continue reading Valentine’s Day Self-Care
Why Is It Still Winter?
Good morning friends! I hope you are doing well! The weather has been really gross here lately - raining and in the 30-40s. The weather was lovely the weekend before - warm, hints of sun. I went for a hike with friends and didn't have to wear a jacket. I went for a run last… Continue reading Why Is It Still Winter?
On Accepting Imperfections
Good morning friends! Almost done with January. Almost there, almost there...I started off last week feeling really focused, but ended it feeling very self-critical. Add generous dashes of glumness and heaping servings of anxiety and rumination. I spent the weekend trying to center myself and mentally prep for the busy week ahead of me. Yoga… Continue reading On Accepting Imperfections
