What crochet project are you working on? Share a photo below! I’m in the process of designing a brontosaurus pattern 🦕

Have you ever wondered what truly drives you? That deep sense of purpose that makes you excited to get up in the morning? In Japanese culture, there’s a concept for this, ikigai, which translates to “a reason for being.” This concept is AMAZING and helped give my passion such meaning. Read more on the blog or listen to the podcast episode. Ikigai is the intersection of your passions, your skills, your purpose, and what the world needs. It’s a powerful framework that has completely reshaped how I approach my crochet business, and it might just change the way you see your own creative journey too.
