Bio:

I am a wife and mom of THREE boys.

I love the beach.
I live in the middle of the bald ass prairies.
I have a beach at my house, on the prairies.
I love Will Ferrell movies.
I can't say no to honey dip donuts.
I love coffee - but not shitty coffee.
I volunteer too much, but try to stop me.
I swear. A lot. Fuck. Sorry.

Inspiration:

I began knitting to keep my hands and mind busy during a real shit year. Amid a truck load of crap, I lost my Gramma, and knitting felt like a way to connect with her.

Fast forward to the time that rhymes with Schmovid. The supply chain ran dry and I found a way to get quality merino yarn in my hands without waiting on big companies to stock back up. Dyeing yarn is such a fun and rewarding experience. I love being able to source supplies from reliable and ethical businesses, and partnering with other trustworthy and quality-driven small businesses.

Color inspiration comes from nostalgic songs, movies, and fads, as well as what I see around me!
