With a little bit of patience, some coffee, and a whole lot of Toni's help @tlyarncrafts through YouTube tutorials and I made a Tunisian crochet thing (a slightly wonky swatch/dishcloth)! Toni is so encouraging and such a great teacher! 💻We are chatting with her tomorrow (Jan 15) with #ZKN @stockinettezombies and I can't wait! 🔗 Also, check out the link in my stories for her Beginner's Guide to Tunisian Crochet with supply recommendations, tutorial links, and first project ideas! . It was fun to use a different part of my brain and I just love the fabric and texture TC creates! 💞🧶💚This is simple TC stitch with @knit_picks Dishie . #trySomethingNew #tunisiancrochet #craftingFun #myDailyKnitting365

One of my 2021 crafting aspirations is to use more of my older stash. Not a yarn diet, but a better balance of using both new and old yarn.

When I was turning 21, if you had told me that 20 years in the future my favorite drink would be coffee☕, and my favorite kind of cake would be yarn 🧶, I would have laughed and laughed. My then boyfriend, now husband, would have joined in the laughter. I didn't drink coffee or knit back then, and now they are 2 of my favorite things! I am enjoying both today as I celebrate another trip around the sun 🧶☕💞 Life doesn't always end up how you imagine, but I am thankful for every day I've been given so far (14,976 days). . #myDailyKnitting365 #downhillbothwaysSocks @legacyfiberartz micro sock set #knitspiration #strikkesokker #dailyKnitSocks

Saddened. Sickened. But not surprised, which saddens and sickens me further. Worrying and praying for our country, our leaders, and the brave public servants that are risking their lives to provide security to our nation's leaders. This is real life; this isn't a tv show where everything returns to normal at the end of the hour.....trying to knit on with hope (through yet another crisis). . #myDailyKnitting365
