I tried about five times to get alt text in there, so I do apologize I did try!

So here is the alt text

Flipping my 7-year chip over to reveal my 8-year chip. Phoenix on both, quote of rising from the ashes on both.

Got my 8 year chip!

Thank you!!!

Sobriety feels so good.

Even on days that you're sick (like today, my 8 year soberversary 🤣)

Sobriety has brought me so many good things- it's changed my life and who I am.

I went from being a joke to an inspiration. To hopeless to someone who gives hope.

Thank you!

I'm suddenly craving watermelon 😂

I'm on track to having this ready for my next shop update!

It's what everyone needs at summertime-a hooded scarf.

It's my SOBERVERSARY month!

Friday, May 16th!

Crochet got me sober, and keeps me sober. It's hard to celebrate one without the other!

And what better way to celebrate my milestone than with a shop update?

Like my newest hooded scarf in pink, green and sparkle!

I'm feeling louder and prouder than ever before.

And so should you.

Don't let them dull your sparkle.

Bags available on my website.

Can you feel the magic in this?

This is one of those projects I keep having to pause to gaze at. The colors are so vibrant and the slight sparkle really sets this hooded scarf apart from any other I've made 🥰

It's a mad, mad world.

Take a minute to calm the chaos. Reset your brain, relax the tension, and take a few deep breaths.

Thank you!! I can't wait to get more of them done!

Thank you!!

Days like today make me feel more magical. When beer and liquor are being advertised and pushed more, I feel more powerful walking by.

Happy birthday to me, indeed.

I'm unstoppable.

Be safe out there!

I've been meaning to Mel up and get videos of my very own Phoenix Shawl.

I'm still learning how to load videos here, obviously 😉

Crochet shawl in shape of wings made with gold and purple sparkle yarn

I love making things that help people sparkle.

This pair of wings flew to give strength and hope to a Phoenix battling cancer.

I love knowing where my wings fly to.

I'm so pleased to announce that I've got a line of cotton Pride Market Bags coming to my shop, and these three are just the start.
