4️⃣1️⃣ trips around our closest star☀️ 4️⃣1️⃣ trips around our closest star☀️🎂🎂. One of my sisters asked me yesterday if I’m feeling like 41 and I told her “nah, more like 25 still!”. Hehee! Ever grateful to God for His goodness and grace! I really am what I am by God’s grace and mercies 🙏🏽. • I’m celebrating this birthday with an occupant 🤰🏽and the reason I have been so unwell for so long!

Let’s see how many we get this time, eh? • To celebrate my birthday, I have set up a 48 hour sale on Ravelry for you to get 40% off your purchase (cos 41% is such a weird percentage!). No code required, just add your purchase and you’re good to go! Link to my Ravelry shop in bio.

I had a two week annual leave from work and for the first time ever, I also took the entire two weeks off business related things. It was time off that I didn’t think I needed but it did me a world of good. Being unwell also meant that I couldn’t entertain feelings of freaking out about being away for too long cos I just didn’t have the energy to do much. • I’ve had a lovely staycation with the famalam and it’s back to work this week plus counting down to my birthday in two days time 💃🏽💃🏽♍️.

Let me tell you a little story about these gorgeou Let me tell you a little story about these gorgeous chunks of yarn from @woolyknit. I mean, look at the size of them! 🧶🧶🧶. So, the fab trio of @thewoolmontyshow shared their #MontyAtHome hauls the other day and I was immediately drawn to the huge hanks of yarn in each of their hauls 😍😍. At the time, I had started swatching for a pattern and wasn’t liking the yarn I was knitting with and just somehow knew that this yarn from @woolyknit was THE ONE. Long story short, I received my happy mail yesterday and I am not disappointed at all! So, a huge thank you to Rosie, Mand and Debbie of @thewoolmontyshow for sharing their hauls and a huge thank you to @woolyknit for these gorgeous and squishilicious (oooooh, what a word!) yarn 😍😍🙌🏽🙌🏽. THE END 😊😊. • Yarn: 500g Merino DK Hank from @woolyknit. • •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ •⠀⠀ #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
