Announcements
The Hon Worsted cowl has been released! It's a new version of my Hon Cowl, upscaled for worsted weight. Now through March 31, 2019, get the cowl for 50% off with Ravelry coupon code HON50. If you already bought the Hon Cowl, you can get Hon Worsted for just $1 - no coupon code needed and no expiration date. (Note: This only applies for purchased Hon Cowl patterns, not patterns that were downloaded for free or as gifts.) Hon Worsted was designed with yarn support from Undead Yarn.

The Lots of Socks KAL has raised $21,000+ for Down Syndrome International! Thank you for all your support, whether you bought my Ever True socks pattern or participated in other ways.
My patterns have been paused on the Making Things platform. This means that you will no longer be able to discover me there. For a full explanation of my decision, see this Instagram Post.
