Nothing but love for the queen Beyarncé wearing one of my designs! 😍😍😍
If you see me out and speak and I don’t respond, it’s because I’m wearing a Dipole Beanie, designed and hand-knit by THE Chinua “Chin” Matthews and I absolutely think I’m better than you now. 😩😮‍💨🤣

But seriously, I absolutely adore Chin.

Thank you, babe!!! 😍

Happy #FOFriday everyone! I’m back with another finished Dipole Beanie! I finally grafted the crown and added a label to this project. Loving the color that was dyed by the incomparable @lolabeanyarnco.com ! This is Slimer from the Ghostbusters collection!

Forgot to post my swatch from this weekend here, but working on a new sweater inspired by 90’s wallpapers! I’ve had this idea for a while but was intimidated by making a repeating pattern but it turned out to be really straightforward

The first BBQ of the summer was a success! And I made some bomb potato salad too! 🤤
