Sheep to Shawl
I’m mainly writing this post to retrace my own steps in recently creating a shawl. I usually just say, “I enjoy knitting” or spinning without explaining much about my process. Honestly, I sometimes find it frustrating to describe, because I could be using my creativity towards knitting instead (it’s more…

Rough Week
It’s been longer since my last update than I’m comfortable with. I admire those who manage to blog consistently, no matter their mood or the demands of life. It’s inspiring—but honestly, I just can’t. Nothing catastrophic happened to me this week, but it’s been challenging. As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve…

Reading Roundup 2024: The Best, the Disappointments, and What’s Next
It’s the time of year to reflect on everything that has happened. So here are the best and also the somewhat disappointing books I’ve read lately. My goal was to read 50 books, and it may end up a failure, I’ve accepted that. Maybe I can still fit in a…

List your top 5 grocery store items. Trigger warning: this post discusses weight loss, calorie restriction, and body image. This post also contains some toilet talk, sorry in advance!

A Vigilante Dressed in Black (Not Batman)
Trigger warning if you don’t want to hear anymore delighting in the death of a scumbag healthcare millionaire. The coolest guy with the biggest balls in America took out an insurance boss on the street in NYC last week! Millions laughed and nobody cried. People hate to watch their loved…
