Good afternoon beautiful people! How has your Wednesday gotten on? Mine has been action packed as it is a clean up day at my house. On Wednesdays we clean! My house wasn’t the only thing that received a clean up though. The dillon beanie - the alterations and the dillon beanie - an update both got a much needed cleanup.Plus, an all new post is live on twl.design!

Today we chatted about a whole heck of a lot more than just crochet. I got real about the ups and downs I have experienced while trying to build TWL, the fear of being enough and I even posed a few thought provoking questions that I am dying to hear your answers to. In other words, we had a mini therapy session over in crochet central and it was top notch. You should definitely go check it out if you’re interested in crochet meets life advice. The link to the dillon beanie - an upgrade part 2 will be down below! .

Well, that’s all for now folks. Thanks for taking time out of your day to view TWL’s content, it means the absolute world to me. As always, happy wandering.

Afternoon my fellow crafters! How's your Sunday afternoon treating you thus far? Mine is going well despite the fact it is over 100 degrees again #sacramentosummers, am I right? As it is Sunday, I am sure you are all incredibly busy gearing up for the week so I will be brief.

. Today we have update #2 for the tutu much triangle project. I think I have pretty much decided that this triangle is going to be a blanket, though I haven't entirely ruled out the idea of a funky bag. Either way, I am loving how this piece is shaping up. Thus far the triangle shape has kept which means my finished piece won't be some indistinguishable blob - yay! For this most part, the modified granny square pattern has ensured that this is a fast paced project but that awesome little lip round? That my friends took forever. Don't get me wrong, it is cute as can be and my partner was totally right, it adds the perfect bit of texture, but I freaking HATE that round with a passion. It is soooooooooooooo tedious; my hands cramped up early on when I was working the round and I was forced to go much slower than I would have liked but beauty is pain right? (It's not, in case you were wondering but I like using silly sayings so it stays.) What are your tips for the dreaded crochet hand cramp? Please share them below…I am desperate.

. Despite the hand cramping, I cannot wait to see the finished product! Any bets on how big this thing will end up? I'm guessing it will be a solid large baby blanket but who knows!! It could end up being the perfect accent throw too. Let me know in the comments below what size you think this triangle will be.

. Okay, so I apologize…I wasn't that brief but I promise I really did try! I'll let you get back to it now. Happy Sunday and as always, happy wandering friend.

How do you spread love? I spread the love by being present and holding space for people. For me, that is true love. It isn't flowers, chocolates, and pretty words (though I enjoy all those things). It is the unspoken things we do for others, the time we share with people, and the connections we choose to make. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This week's acrylic avenue post delves into my most recent obsession, bk the artist, and so much more! Be sure to check it out and share your thoughts somewhere below. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ happy wandering ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #thewanderinglines #TWL #acrylicavenue #roundup #artistroundup #bktheartist #acrylicart #artblog
