If your suggestion gets chosen, I’ll send you a copy of the pattern when it’s released. Thanking you!⠀⠀ •⠀ Pattern: “No name yet” crochet cowl (suggestions welcome).⠀ Yarn: Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran.⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #crochet #crocheting #handmadebykunbi #pattern #crochetlove #crochetersofinstagram #instacrochet #ganchillo #häkeln #haken #crocheted #virka #yarnlove #uncinetto #crochetpattern #bobbles #paintboxyarns #ourmakerlife
  • This colour combo is one of my faves. I think 🤔 I know what I’ll be making, let’s hope it works out the way I see it in my head.⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #mumpreneur #knitting #crocheting #yarnlover #hygge #makemoments #makersgonnamake #flashesofdelight #modernmaker #createmakeshare #darlingmovement #dowhatyoulove #craftsposure #supporthandmade #girlboss #pursuepretty #livemoremagic #postitfortheaesthetic #creativepreneur #theartofslowliving #weareknitters #thepetitewool
  • Hey there! Happy hump day. My name is Kunbi, lovely to meet you 😀. It’s been a pretty intense few days in the fiber art community. The band aid on racism has been ripped off completely and I’ve shared a few things on my stories already regarding the ongoing discussion. We really must all now work together to ensure things don’t continue the way they have been.⠀ ⠀ I am black (very much so) and I cannot profess to have gone through what most POC have been through. I was born in and grew up in Nigeria 🇳🇬 so the subject matter of racism was never an issue. It was not something we discussed - tribalism was talked about because it was rife in some places but not racism because it was not an issue. Moving to the UK 🇬🇧 quickly changed that and I have experienced one form of racism or the other. It had always been subtle until a few months ago when I had my very first “in your face” kind of racism right near where I live and in a place I frequent regularly. It’s put a huge damper on things and really changed my mindset about stepping forward when issues of racism are discussed. Yet, I CANNOT begin to compare my experience of racism to those I’ve been reading about in the last few days. They have caused my jaw to drop, brought me to tears and made me ask the same question I ask over and over again, why? I love the colour of my skin and I’ll forever wonder why it causes some people so much grief.⠀ ⠀ There is a lot of work to be done and we all need to work together for any form of progress to take place. Prejudice of any kind is wrong wrong wrong. Like Maya Angelou said “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better”.⠀ ⠀ “Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.” - 1 Corinthians 13:13.⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #happyhumpday #heytherehey #diversity #diversknitty #blackandproud #blackpeopledoknit #weknittoo #blackknittersofinstagram #diversityandinclusion #yarnlover #knitterlife #crocheting #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #crafter #maker

  • I’ve been playing with the bobble stitch lately and I cannot get enough of it! Working on a thing here and already frogged a little after this pic was taken...oh and bébé is teething at the mo, so we have a few teething rings hanging about...one had to make it into the pic, as per current life situations, you know? 😊😊. ⠀ Happy hump day my dear friends! Not long before the weekeeeeend!⠀ •⠀ Pattern: Soon come!!⠀ Yarn: Paintbox Yarns Simply Aran.⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #crochet #crocheting #handmadebykunbi #pattern #crochetlove #crochetersofinstagram #instacrochet #ganchillo #häkeln #haken #crocheted #virka #yarnlove #uncinetto #crochetpattern #furlscrochet #furlscrochethook #paintboxyarns #ourmakerlife

  • 2018 has been mostly about preparing for bébé’s arrival (during which time I took a break from designing and pattern writing to knit and crochet patterns by other makers [mostly items for bébé]), welcoming bébé, getting used to being a mama of two and lots and lots of growth (personal, spiritual and business), among other things. There have been lots of challenges but I have learnt and I am learning from them, and looking to the many exciting experiences ahead.⠀ •⠀ Thank you all so much for being a part of my rich memories of 2018. I’m so excited and look forward to sharing the many things I am currently working on, those currently down in my project book and those I am yet to think about...hahaa!⠀ ⠀ Happy New Year, friends 🎉 🎉. Here’s 🥂 to an amazingly awesome 2019 for you all. God bless and keep ya!⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #2018bestnine #bestnine #yarnlover #knitterlife #crocheting #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #etsyseller #etsysellersofinstagram #crafter #maker #craft
  • Hey there friends! It’s been a while since I did a #meetthemaker post and as I’ve got quite a number of new followers, I thought I’ll do the last one for 2018. So, hey 👋🏽 there, lovelies! Here are five random facts about me: ⠀ 💫 I'm very very playful and energetic ⚡️ and almost always on the go, go, go 🏃🏽‍♀️. Works perfectly as I have a very energetic 6 year old and an almost 7 month old baby, who loves interaction.⠀ 💫 I love laughing, I mean throw your head back or roll on the floor type of laugh and I enjoy making people laugh 😂😂.⠀ 💫 I love dancing 💃🏽 and I can dance all day 🌞 and all night 🌑.⠀ 💫 I’m a medical writer (currently on maternity leave) and I love my job as it allows me to combine my love for research 🧪 and writing ✍🏽.⠀ 💫 I do not like boiled egg yolk (or runny eggs 🍳), the smell literally makes me gag 🤢.⠀ •⠀ Have we got anything in common? I would love to know more about you, so comment below 😊. ⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ •⠀ #yarnlover #knitterlife #crocheting #crochet #crochetersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #etsyseller #etsysellersofinstagram #crafter #maker #craft
