If you go to the The Great New York State Fair, make sure to stop by the arts and crafts competitions!
This was my first year entering. All five submissions were accepted into the show and four won ribbons!

Here I am with two of my pieces. If you take a picture of yourself with each of the five, dm me those pictures, and I’ll send you a special 50% off discount code for when the Etsy shop opens again later this month!

Tragedy struck this past weekend as I dropped my old trusty hook on blacktop. The glazing on the tip has chipped off and is now snagging on yarn.

This hook has existed in my craft supplies for so long that I don’t remember when I got it or where it came from. It’s entirely possible that I stole it from my mom when I was in high school.

I have worked with this hook so much previously that the color has rubbed off on the center and I wrapped it in vet wrap to continue use.

I will be mourning the loss of my most used hook… and simultaneously going on vacation. Yes, this post is actually to let you know the Etsy shop will be closed through Labor Day. 😆

Hoping you all enjoy the rest of your summer! 🩷

How is it going to be August already?! ☀️
Coming up this Saturday, August 1st, from 10 am to 2 pm, I’ll be at the Fayetteville Art Festival!

Don’t miss your opportunity to get your hands on one of the last two capelets!
Happening at the Fayetteville Free Library, I’ll be in spot 22, closest to Orchard Street.

Recently, I’ve been reminded how helpful some of my items can be in summer, so I’ve put them on sale for the remainder of July!

On one of the hottest days of the year, I wore a tank top to a doctor’s office. The a/c was so cold! It would have been the perfect opportunity for a capelet.
This past weekend I was by a campfire wishing I had brought my cardigan.
Learn from my mistakes! Have fun this summer while staying comfortable! Cardigan and capelets are 25% off with no code needed!

I’ve noticed some comments at the last few markets about “how fast” I can make things, especially connected to my pricing, so I thought it was time to address it.

I always tell people the number of active work hours it takes to make something. Crochet requires downtime to care for my body and not injure myself.
When thinking about why something may cost what it does, think about what you might be paid per hour, and you’ll realize my work is a bargain!

Hopefully this post will help explain my process.
Thanks for reading and understanding!

I’m going back to the Fairgrounds this weekend! 🎉
The Food Truck Battle promises to be a fun and tasty weekend of food samples, music, vendors, and more!

Pre sale tickets are still $5, available through tomorrow!
If you miss pre-sale, it should still be fun and worth the admission.
I’ve been making a list of the samples I want to try! Brisket and cheddar mac, Colombian empanadas, whatever a Boston cream croffle is?!

Find out with me this weekend and pick up your last minute Mother’s Day gifts! 🎁

Always nice to see friends both old and new at every year!

Big thanks to everyone who stopped by to process scraps into pet bed filling and think about ways we can reduce textile waste!

I’ll be back at the Fairgrounds next weekend!
Stay tuned for details!
