This autumn, I accidentally adopted a colony of moth caterpillars into my house from some fresh flowers. Although they all made it outside, it made me wonder what they would look like all grown up. The pretty creatures on these socks represent the Adela genus of moths, part of the fairy longhorn family. These moths will look so elegant in that ...

“Weeds are flowers, too, once you get to know them” has always been my favorite quote from Winnie the Pooh. Sometimes the sweetest flowers on my neighborhood walks come from plants that are technically weeds, and I admire them all the same.

The Snowbird Socks are inspired by my little winter birds: they are always prepared for the season, and never forget their winter scarves and hats. I designe...

There aren’t very many sock patterns, so I created this little sock design that I can wear on November 5, 2024. Knit along with me to be ready to make our voices heard!
