I’m finishing writing up this pattern for a cute granny square balaclava so I wanted to share my favorite part! If you made my Harriet tank, you know I’m a big fan of front and back post ribbing. Honestly I’m just obsessed with it. I think it looks beautiful in every project. It reminds me the same feeling of twisted rib in knitting. I know it may not be everyone’s jam, but it’s mine 😍
.
Enjoy this chaotic video of my crocheting while out with nick and ruby. It’s always my favorite time of day and I finally get to relax and unwind with them ❤️ I was also inspired by @theskeiniac to record myself this way even tho she does it way better 😂🫶🏻
.
Lookout for tester call tomorrow or Friday!

New yarn in the shop! 🥰
.
I’ve added a few quantities of these OOAK skeins to my shop, ready to ship! I’ve also added the final two months of the Album Mystery Club for November and December. They will both ship at the same time in the first week of December to make sure the last month avoids holiday shipping delays!
.
I will have a tiny shop update at the end of the year for the last 6 months of the Album Mystery Club so you can grab any quantities you missed out on, but other than that this will be the last yarn update for the year! Happy shopping 🫶🏻

This sweater is like a big hug and I love it 😍
.
On top of how bad last month was, I’ve also been struggling a great deal with my health and getting treatment. I haven’t qualified for health insurance since 2017 and it’s really difficult to get affordable treatment otherwise. All that to say, I’ve been in need of a big hug and this sweater hit the spot. I will be making more this winter 🫶🏻

Yarn: big twist @joann_stores

I have one week to complete this sweater for my trip! Do you think I’ll make it? This sweater has been a great distraction to work on. And it’s getting colder and colder here each day!
.
I’m also going to be sending out the draft of my Calliope Socks to testers today so if you signed up for the test, keep an eye out for that email.
.
I also wanted to say thanks to those of you that sent supportive messages and comments yesterday. I did however receive quite a bit of harassing messages as well so I’m just trying to move forward best I can. ❤️

I have really poured my heart into writing this so please read and just be respectful. I would love to keep the comments on but I will turn them off if anyone isn’t respectful. I never want to make these posts ever. I would much rather share the joy and beauty of my Jewish identity.
.
Almost one year ago to the day I made a post very similar to this. Help me create a world where these posts never have to happen again..
.
One more thing I couldn’t fit into these slides. The Magen star in the first photo is not a symbol of zi@nism. It is a very old and sacred Jewish symbol. Don’t rewrite what our symbols mean to fit any narrative. This symbol was once used to identify Jews of Europe to be m*urdered, now I have it placed in my home to honor the lives that were lost. ❤️
.
I’m sorry I don’t have all the slides written out for those with vision impairments. There was far too much to be able to fit into a caption.
