Once upon a time, I couldn’t be bothered to alte Once upon a time, I couldn’t be bothered to alternate rows with two balls of hand dyed yarn until I learned the hard way with one of my projects: The colour on one arm was completely different from the other arm 🤣🤣🤣. Let’s just say I put it down to artistic input or something snazzy like that...heheheee! Buuuut I can now never ever not alternate rows (I tend to do every two rows) with two balls of hand dyed yarn. Have you had a similar experience with not alternating rows when knitting with hand dyed yarn? Share your story in the comments 👇🏽😊. • Yarn: Tennyson by @pigment.and.ply.

If a hoodie doesn’t have pockets, can it even be If a hoodie doesn’t have pockets, can it even be called a hoodie?? Asking for a friend 👀😊. • This project has been a story of life, lemons and lemonade...lol! A few weeks ago I posted in my stories about the purple yarn I was using for this project. I didn’t have any left and the yarn has been discontinued. Searched everywhere I could for it and the few places that had any left were charging cray cray shipping costs. Long story short, I decided to change tact and use a contrast colour, and you know what? I actually prefer it this way! It wasn’t the initial plan but I’m glad this is where we’re at now 🙌🏽🙌🏽. • How has your weekend been so far?

@knotbadbritt issued a challenge for #bipocmakers @knotbadbritt issued a challenge for #bipocmakers to post a crafty photo with their hands, as even till now, it is rare to see melanated hands on social media. • I was taught to knit and crochet as a kid in Nigeria by one of my Ghanaian primary school teachers. So when I joined the crafting community, I naively thought I would see lots of people who looked like me knitting and crocheting on social media but let me tell you, the reality hit me like a tonne of bricks! If I remember correctly, one of the first melanated hands I found on IG (cos I went searching) was @tlyarncrafts and I followed her without even looking to see what she was about! • Representation really does matter and when I think about this, I think about the generations coming behind us. Things CANNOT and MUST not be the same for them as it has been so far. There’s gotta be change and I will continue to do everything within my power to be a part of that. • Massive thank you to Britt for this challenge. If you haven’t done so yet, be sure to check out @themakersofcolorcollective curated by Britt to discover more #bipocmakers. Have a great weekend, my friends! • •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ #knitterlife #crocheting #crochet #ilovecrocheting #knitting #knit #knitstagram #crochetstagram #crochetaddict #knitaddict #crochetersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #handmadebykunbi #kunbidesigns #yarnspiration #yarn #yarnlover #kunbidesigns #craftposure #bipocmakers #designer #blackgirlcrafts #blackdesigner #makersgonnamake #handmadefashion #slowfashion #slowfashionmovement #bipocdesignersandcrafters #diversityandinclusion

The Renaissance Crochet Cowl is a fun cowl to make and I’m always so chuffed to see so many of you making it more than once and commenting on how much you love crocheting it. When I create my patterns, I am always very particular about how I want you to feel when you knit or crochet them. 🌟 The entire experience has to spark joy (using the words of @mariekondo 😊) 🌟. I hope you have a fab weekend, my friends.
