Hi, y'all! Happy Friday! I thought today would be a great day to share my finished test knit for @kniterator! I still can't believe how well it ended up fitting! In case you don't know, Kniterator is this super awesome site where you can put in the measurements that you want your sweater to be (ease included) and it calculates a pattern for you! I've never had a store-bought sweater fit me correctly, so knitting one that actually fits is kinda mind blowing. I highly recommend this pattern.⁣
⁣
I also wanted to share that I'm starting a newsletter! My newsletter will be the first place to hear about new products, upcoming events, special offers, and so much more! I have lots of awesome stuff planned for 2020, so you definitely want to sign up to hear about it all first. In fact, there might even be a little goodie just for signing up for the emails! 😉 Sign up with the link in my bio!⁣

THANK YOU! With your help, we've raised almost $150 for @animalrescuecraftguild! Thank you for supporting the Aussie wildlife and my first enamel pin!

The preorder is still up on my website (link in bio) and 50% of profits from this pin will ALWAYS be donated - no time limit! However, the pins are limited in quantity. ••• I'm sure my neighbors thought I was crazy trying to take photos in my backyard, but I wanted to show that the real person behind this account is thankful for you and your support of this project. I don't tend to get in front of the camera much, but trying to change that this year! Now if I could just figure out what to do with my hands... (thank you signs are great hand distractions 👌)

Friends, my heart hurts. I know that may seem like hyperbole, but it's true. In addition to the bushfires raging across Australia (which is upsetting enough), last weekend, one of our dear family friends passed away unexpectedly. Since finding out, I have been just completely overwhelmed with grief and a feeling of helplessness. It has been a really hard week.

But what has really lifted my spirits is all of you! There has been such a great response to my bushfire relief pin! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Being able to help the recovering animals in Australia is an amazing feeling. Let's keep it going, shall we? I'd really appreciate any signal boosting you can give this project! You're welcome to share this post, the original post (my last post that has the same graphic in the second slide here), or the actual preorder listing (link in bio). ••• Pictured is an adorable wallaby my friend and I met at a zoo/wildlife park during our semester in Australia. Yes, that's my arm! This fella was so sweet... I swear he wanted to come home with us! I'd like to think he's doing well and is untouched by the fires.

Australia is near & dear to my heart. I spent a semester in Australia during my undergraduate studies and fell in love with the country and all its wildlife. It breaks my heart to know that so much of the country is suffering from the bushfires. I had been wondering what I could do to help when I stumbled across the Animal Rescue Collective Craft Guild (ARCCG) on Facebook. They had a post with what they were requesting from crafters to help the rescued animals: joey pouches, bird nests, bat wraps, and more. And I thought, “Yes! I can do this! I have yarn – I can do something!” From there I found the American Rescue Crafters Connect group (the group based in the US to organize efforts over here) and started crocheting some nests.

But another idea began formulating. I’ve been planning on designing enamel pins and have always wanted a portion of the profits to go to charity. Well, designing a pin to help the animals in Australia seemed like another way I could help.

So I created this enamel pin depicting a kangaroo joey in a knitted pouch. The ARCCG is requesting monetary donations for supplies and distribution so carers receive the items they need to give the animals a fighting chance. Therefore, I will be donating 50% of profits from the sale of this enamel pin to them! I really appreciate any support you can give this group and my enamel pin design.

Tldr; this is a preorder of a 1.5" kangaroo joey hard enamel pin with black nickel finish. 50% of profits go to @animalrescuecraftguild. Link in bio for preorder!
