Reduce, reuse, recycle.

I'm kind of on a 'look what I can do with old crap!' kick at the moment.

My current weapon of choice? Bedsheets. Turns out that if you're careful, you can rip them into continuous lengths that can be used as yarn!

I decided to channel my grandmother and make myself a rug for my cabin.


At this point, I'm three bedsheets in. It's actually a nice little area rug now!


I've never crocheted before, so this is weird for me. The hook is just so massive!


Oh well. I'm having fun, getting rid of something that would have been thrown out anyways, and winding up with something nice at the end of it. Everybody wins!

Modeling in High Park

It's been a beautiful summer here in Toronto. A bit colder then normal, but I guess I just like that weather because I can wear my knits.

I recently got to wear some other knits by another artist though! Stitch Noir on Etsy has some really fantastic (and macabre!) crocheted pieces that are really just amazing.

She invited myself and a couple others to model her works recently, and it was a fantastic evening of laughter and great friends.

Check her out!
