It's crazy out there right now!  We have massive wildfires on the west coast, cold fronts freezing the east coast, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton devastated Communities throughout Florida to North Carolina.  There are so many people in dire need right now.  My heart goes out to them.  If you have the ability to help crochet something and donate it or even donate financially, there are so many people who have lost so much and would greatly benefit from it.  Warm Up America is still supporting Hurricane Helene Victims if you go to warmupamerica.org you can find more information under MAKE and CURRENT NEEDS.

I'm not sure yet how we can help the victims of the California Fires.  But also, everyone experiencing extreme cold would probably appreciate a blanket.  You can also find more information on that or other desired project donations at Warm Up America as well.  

You are all amazing and I love and appreciate you so much! πŸ’–

For me....  If I could go back and give my younger self one piece of advice it would be to stay authentic and don't let anyone persuade you to do or be something else. πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–

My latest WIP is the Slounge Pullover using Caron Halo Perfect Phasing in the colorway Orange Sherbet (my wedding colors were bright orange and bright green - think cutie oranges and limes). It's a free pattern on the Yarnspirations site and I need more sweaters LOL
