I’m absolutely loving the way this yarn is working up! It’s a OOAK colorway that I kept for myself because I loved how it came out. Just right for my first attempt at designing a crocheted sock!

The one thing I’ve learned to do that makes the biggest difference for me is requesting wheelchair service at the airport. It makes going through security a little better, especially not having to stand in long lines, and it’s a true godsend if you have to change planes.
