It’s 2021 everyone! It’s still the middle of a pandemic, though, so wear a mask and stay home. Mmkay! 2020 was a year. 2019 was a year. Etc. I don’t attribute any one year to the troubles in my life. It’s all part of the systemic issues that our society has and until those change… … More Muna and Broad Banskia Bralette
It’s been a rough time for me from my last post in August. My migraines got way way worse causing me to take medical leave from work at the beginning of October.

As you probably know by now, I test patterns for Cashmerette. I can’t test every single one, though, and sometimes it really hurts to turn it down! The Tobin sweater was one that hurt to say no to, but I wasn’t able to do it at the time. The lucky thing is that Cashmerette still … More Cashmerette Tobin Sweater
