Day in my life… why me 😭

... Read moreCrafting and yarn work are beloved hobbies for many, but they can come with their fair share of frustrations. Running out of yarn can severely interrupt a project, leading to feelings of disappointment and a need for creativity to salvage the situation. To overcome this, it's essential to plan your projects consciously, ensuring that you have enough yarn to complete your intended design. Understanding yarn weights, types, and how they correspond to patterns can greatly influence your crafting experience. For instance, a 4.5 mm hook is versatile enough for many worsted weight yarns, which are popular for various projects. More extensive planning can prevent the dreaded "yarn panic" as you near the end of a project. Additionally, engaging with a community of fellow yarn enthusiasts can provide support and ideas on alternative solutions when yarn shortages happen. Remember to utilize hashtags such as #yarnlover and #yarnlife on social media platforms to connect with others and share your experiences. The craft community thrives on shared stories, tips, and encouragement, so don’t hesitate to reach out and learn from others who may have faced similar challenges.

FAITH + MOTIVATION: Why God separates you
I used to get so uncomfortable with this. Every sphere God put me in, whether gym, skateboarding, photo + fashion industry (God allowed me to do them all) I was always the one that stuck out. Not like a sore thumb, but the one that God separated. I never understood why, but as the years have go

Why Y’all Didn’t Tell Me This Is STRESSFUL???

why you are feeling lonely in a group
for a really long time I would feel lonely, but not when I’m alone, it would actually be when I’m around people. this is very odd to me because it would be around people that I would call my friends or family as I later comes to realize it was not the right people for me and I decided to let a lot

Self-Sabotage: Why You Do It & How to Stop
Here’s what to do when self-sabotage has its grip on you: ✅ Have a Meeting with Yourself Pause. No shame. Ask yourself: What am I really afraid of here? Write it down. Is it fear of not being good enough? Fear of being seen? Often, the fear itself feels bigger than the thing you're avoiding

Best months to get pregnant and why!!!

Why did no one tell me how magical this feeling is
Love is the one thing I will always give freely, no matter how many times my heart breaks. There’s a saying: It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. Imagine loving someone so freely, so fiercely, so loudly, so purely—and imagine them loving you back. What a beautiful gif

why equality doesn't work in my relationship…
I used to be someone who would always be focused on EQUALITY in my relationship ALL THE TIME. If I didn’t see my partner pulling his weight 50/50 one day, I would be so upset. I tried to make sure EVERYTHING was 50/50. Chores. Expenses. You name it. But I realized just how unhappy and more importan
