This is the 2nd sweater I ever made (I’ve made like 8 now and I’m working on a 9th). I used that crochet cat afghan pattern by sarah miller maxfield but did a knit version and made it into a sweater. bee and puppycat-inspired color palette. this was in 2021 and my knitting was not very good (and in retrospect this was far too ambitious of a project for my level at the time). but I still have it and I still wear it, it’s a treasure. as far as my “signature projects” go, this is definitely one of them.
this is one of this annoying things that actually makes a difference and makes your mom say I told you so. there's something about a made bed that makes me feel like my life is just that little bit more together and getting into a made bed at night is one of my top 10 favorite mundane experiences.
potatoes, oysters, mussels, beaches, dunes, lush fields, childhood dreams of anne of green gables fulfilled. amazing food, incredibly kind people, and beautiful landscapes. truly what more can you ask for.
