It's been arguably a decade in the making, but I'm delighted to say the new Hands Occupied YouTube Channel is live! Head to the link in bio to find the channel & subscribe. Also linked is a blog post featuring the first two new videos and the teesiest bit about my multi-camera & mic setup for tutorials for those who are curious. 🎥 ⠀
.⠀
.⠀
I ask this in my first video, but I'll ask it here too. What would you like to see from my channel? Is there a specific knitting bind off you'd like to see in detail? Should I do a deep dive into latch hook trimming technique? Or do crafty vlogs tickle your fancy? I have some ideas up my sleeve, but it is so helpful to know what folks are eager to see! Tell me your ideas plzzz ❤️ #handsoccupied

I woke up to this! ❤️💛💙 These beautiful wool swatches are knit with my favorite @kelbournewoolens Germantown colors from @knit_picks. They might just also be for something that’s been in the works for a long long (long) time! Announcement tomorrow. ☺️

P.S. The rainbow isn’t a filter! This made me so happy this morning! 😆🌈 #stopswatchandblockit #handsoccupied

Roses are red.
These envelopes are too.
I am grateful for each and every one of you. ❤️

All Hands Occupied Shop enamel pin orders have been shipped! If you didn’t scoop one last weekend, don’t forget code FREESHIP works through 10/1 - the shop is linked in bio. 📌

I’ll be back to posting explicitly crafty things tomorrow, and assuming all goes well, I should have another exciting new thing to tell y’all about too! She’s busy, what can I say? #handsoccupied

We officially have enamel pins in the Hands Occupied Shop, folks! To celebrate ten years of Hands Occupied, I worked with illustrator @tinywaterbear & @wizardpins to develop these adorable designs inspired by the knitting community. Which is your favorite?⠀

Both of these cuties are now in the Shop (links in bio), and you can use FREESHIP at checkout for free shipping through 10/1/20. 🎉 🎉 🎉 #enamelpins #knittersofinstagram

Online, I am known as a crafter first, but in recent years my love of vintage has become more visible in my work, especially through my vintage knitting adventures. Today I wanted to start sharing interesting, cute, & straight up weird items from my vintage clothing and knick knack collections with you. These are things that bring me joy, whether they make me feel pretty or just plain laugh. The world is kind of trash right now, so why not? 👗🧵
.
.

So! For this first vintage-meets-handmade wardrobe post, I'm pairing a medical scrubs-teal dress with a pink gingham apron stitched with chicken scratch embroidery (see another shot a couple posts back). If this dress isn't deadstock, it has to have been worn only once or twice ever - it's in amazing shape! Found at Chicago's @kneedeepvintage, this cotton, elbow-length, 1950s shirtwaist dress features color-matching shank style buttons and elegant pleating to form a full skirt that hits just below the knee. With some alterations, this is going to be a lifelong favorite that I swear will see date night again!
.
.

Finally, 2 quick questions: 1. I'm curious, if you could wear this dress anywhere, where would it be? / And 2. What vintagey thing should I share next? I think It needs to be something weird like a faux fur poodle-themed toilet paper roll cover with a felt tongue sticking out. Or something. 😆 #handmadevintage
