Story time. Yesterday I was walking out in the real human world wearing a dress. I haven’t worn a dress in ages because I try to hide my tattoo in professional settings. I was listening to my favorite podcast when I felt someone touch my hand and out of the corner of my eye it looked like he was going to either touch my butt or lift up my dress. My lizard brain immediately yelled at him and there may have been a profanity in there. I walked away rushing with adrenaline and ashamed because I am not the type of person to yell certainly not to strangers. While he didn’t look shocked, he did apologize and say “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to touch you.” But we were the only two people on the street and it was a wide one. 🦎 I spent some time introspecting why I reacted the way I did when the beautiful soul @awkwardsquared reminded me that Karen is @myfavoritemurder once said “if someone scares you you scare them back.” 🦎 I’ve been grabbed and groped by men on the streets as I know so many women have. It’s moments like these when I realize how it’s shaped me to react. This is my angry project. I it when I’m upset and feel helpless or I need some sort of cathartic “what is this world” moment of reflection. Pattern coming soon. Until then SSDGM.
I had to do a #FlashBackFriday today because it’s a super Friday. Last night I turned in my last assignment of the corner and I’m officially done with my fourth year of grad school 🎉 how are you all spending this weekend? I’m heading out of town for a wedding but you bet that my WIPs were the first thing I packed 🤣
Better late than never right? Craftivism is a constant work in progress and I’m so inspired by the work that @badasscrossstitch is doing with the @badassherstory movement. Who else will be in Philly tonight for the event?! I’m so excited and my #reBUTTal is making its debut.
It’s Monday so I think we all need some inspiration, right? Well, I’m so excited to announce that this pattern is now available in my shop! A special thank you to @roguecrafting for doing such an amazing job with test stitching this pattern for me. I’m incredibly pleased with how this piece turned out. 💪🏻
After four months I’ve finally finished the @8.bit.stitch Game of Thrones stitch-along! This was such a fun piece to stitch and the back stitching with @kreinikthreads was the icing on the cake 🍰Visit Kari’s Etsy shop to pick this pattern up for yourself. Now, excuse me while I try to wait patiently for the next book to release. Jk I’m not holding my breath 😭
The new @dmc_embroidery colors fit so beautifully into my collection 😍
Finished the hardest of pods last week on stream. We started Butterfree today and we’re slowly making progress on the original sprites.
I had so much fun with the @philadelphiadrunkenknitwits last night at the River Deck. I worked on my Midtown cardio by @allaboutami . Yarn is @lionbrandstudio superwash merino in Dijon.
