A Bee In The Bonnet

Author: Lauren Rad

If you’re like me and often end up straddling th If you’re like me and often end up straddling the line between form and function, sometimes the best solution is to just have a little bit of both. I’ll use my laptop *and* knit frou-frou socks by hand.
There are over 27,000 of you here, and I realized There are over 27,000 of you here, and I realized it has been a long time since I introduced myself. So hi! I’m Lauren.

Sending a great big hug to my LGBTQ+ friends. You are beautiful, you are loved, and you deserve all the good things. I’m so glad you’re here. Yarns here are (left to right) @sugarplumcircus, @oinkpigments, @stunningstring, @missbabsyarns, @universal_yarn, and @biscotteyarns.
