Spring started but it's not quiiiiiite lovely and warm yet. Looking forward to it! ⁠
⁠
This pattern is available on Ravelry and Payhip today (links to each web shop in my bio!). ⁠

I think I'll need to make this skirt up soon since I felted/shrank my first one! I think a lightweight wool/cotton blend plaid will be just the thing this spring when it's cool but I want good airflow. ⁠
⁠
I cut out a new one in the exact same fabric but I need to get around to putting it together. The smell of spring is in the air and I'm super ready!!!⁠
⁠
The #ColoringBookTee is sure to be back in my rotation this spring too. Have you knit one yet?⁠

⁠

⁠
The pattern is available for individual pattern purchase today on Ravelry and Payhip (links to each web shop in my bio!). ⁠
⁠
Thank you to @Sodaceratops, @Somewhendesigns, @RainbowTortuga, @AStitchOfGreen, @Jlane_designs, @hobbyknits, and @anfieknits for allowing me to share these photos after all this time!
A new vlog episode is available! ⁠ ⁠ An adjust A new vlog episode is available! ⁠
⁠

Come spend a few min to chat with me!
