Pretty much an amazing and innovative use of knitting/crochet. Although I think her blog is kind of crazy and we have a lot of different interests- I have a huge amount of respect for this girl and the brand/business she's created.


She is super true to herself and kind and cute and i mean- just by looking through her website or 'sold items' in her etsy you can see she's got skills with needles/hooks and wool. she designs all of the patterns herself and as far as I know makes them all herself (although it wouldn't surprise me if she's got a few extra hands helping her out). One of the things I want to do is combine art and craft together- find some kind of happy medium- bring illustration off of the page... anyway, this inspires me because her knitted pieces look like drawings and that's exciting to me.
