ALWAYS KNIT ETHICALLY + SUSTAINABLY

 
Passionate from miles away ✨ passion makes you do amazing and crazy things all at once. Like use your tears to block the sweater you’ve just poured your whole heart and soul into. The root of the word passion is the Latin pati: to suffer. We literally suffer for our art. This is a metaphor that comes up a lot for me, especially this week. My best work often comes out of times of suffering. Anyway, I could talk about this for hours but I think that’s enough emo rambling for this Saturday!
True story: I was a high functioning crazy person today. Thanks to all who reached out and raised important points, like people are praying to be in your position right now, and ask yourself, are you hungry, angry, lonely, tired? Well yes I was all of those things, plus sick as a dog, but I feel better now. Thanks self care. And tomorrow after I sleep I’ll feel much better. Currently watching ice skating and tucking in those last few ends. 💕 So touched by all the support 😭
Anyone else feel intense ennui bordering on depression after finishing a big project? Because that’s how I feel now. Finished my collection @poppyandpima and now I have a bit of the bum bums. But whatever, let’s just look at this pretty circle I punch needled 💕

Get me away from here, I’m dyeing
There was a 7.1 magnitude earthquake just off the coast of Perú this morning. I’m so glad all my friends and colleagues there are ok. I grew up in LA, I know how terrifying it is when the ground shakes. Everyone I spoke to said it shook for a long time 😬 So thankful the damage was not bad. Fuerza Perú! Here’s a mini tide beanie the knitters in Lima made me for Christmas 😭🌈
I didn’t choose the tangle life, it chose me ✨ Alternate title: my undoing 🌈 HNY!
Be the scrunchie you wish to see in the world 🌅
2017 = knit, quilt, eat, repeat. Thanks to all who made 2017 great 💕
New quilts are live! 🌸a little bit about my quilts: they are wonky af. In fact, you will struggle to find a straight line on them. But they are made with lots of care and love and from fabrics I've collected from my travels all over the place. This one has so many: Nani iro I bought online, yardage bought at markets in Arequipa and Mumbai, special stuff from @fancytigercrafts (which will always remind me of my fun visit to see @clairemargit and her sweet fam) and @cottonandsteel, cut up Japanese multi purpose print towels from @tortoisegeneralstore also some unbelievable scraps from @caitlin_she I feel so lucky to have received. It's a painting you cuddle under, a delightfully wonky one, at that! A collage of things that spark joy. It's a mountain, for crying out loud! 🌄you all know I love mountains 💕
