The final leopard print beanie is off my needles! I love working with patterns like this because they let me keep things fresh & fun.

This style has a chunkier knit with a relaxed slouch, giving it that cozy, effortless look that’s right on trend for the season 🖤

Perfect for crisp mornings, country walks, market days, or just adding a little wild to your fall wardrobe!

Spring is showing off again — new blooms, new ideas, and a whole lot of trying new things. Getting ready for market season with the Animal Attraction Beanie, and honestly… it’s giving main‑character energy!

Sooooo….

I know it’s not #sweaterweather right now, but I realized I never posted my finished Sweater Weather Sweater!

Super cozy and a quick knit ☺️🤎 I’ll still be wearing it this summer on those cooler evenings around the campfire.

One of the yarnie goals I made for myself this year was to try some new projects and expand my knitting skills - so here I am this weekend, working on my first sweater! 🫣 It’s long overdue!

This is the Civility Sweater pattern from @barleyandflax and so far it’s been very easy to understand and I love how it’s turning out! This is a perfect beginner-friendly pattern (thank you for the recommendation, Michelle)!! I’m at the point where I need to put the sleeves on hold 😬 so wish me luck! 😂

The yarn I chose is Dash by @berrocoyarn in the color Catskill! I’ve used this yarn before and I love how soft it is! 🧡
