i’m back baby! 😎😎
got stuck in a (very sleepy) loop there for a while, but i have OF COURSE been crafting in my absence and have so much to share with you all!
First up, a Project Knitwear from the archives! I made these #mistsleeves over a year ago (!) and never got around to sharing them, but I love them SO much 🤩🤩 check out my latest blog post (link is in my bio!) for a chatty summary of my experience making them ✨🤍

I’m starting a knitting scrapbook! 🧶🩵✨
Here’s the vision: for each project, I’ll have a moodboard (for inspo & general vibes), a page for mid-project notes & musings, then a collage of photos of the finished knit!
I’m so excited about this project (mainly because it gives me an excuse to make many, many mood boards which is basically my DREAM 🤩🤩)
You can check out the initial spreads in the journal in today’s blog post! Link is in my bio 🫶🏻🌸

Recently discovered lilacs are edible (is this common knowledge?? My mind was BLOWN?!), so I made some lilac ice cream!!🍦🌸🙂‍↕️
It tastes floral, but also kind of nutmeg-y, like… rice pudding? (in the BEST way possible!) 😋✨ Lilac season is almost over here (😥), but if you’ve still got some in bloom… this one’s for you 🫡🤝
The recipe is on my website now! Link is in my bio 🤪💜

Happy Easter Weekend! 🐣🐰💐🩵✨
