the og from field to skin pattern. you can find out more about this super-local-to-me yarn from my dear friend anna and her family by visiting long way homestead.

the first person you meet who opens your heart in such a way that you realize “love” can take a deeper, more soul-filling shape than you ever thought possible is someone you should hold onto tightly. this hold is also different though - you have to hold them with your heart, not your arms. you have to be ready to let them go whenever they need to go out into the world to kick ass (because, of course, this deep love is capable of no less). this person turns your solitary wolf into a tiny pack, and if you’re lucky, your wolf pack will grow. knit these cozy handshoes to keep your loves warm no matter where you are. originally designed for my deep love, sj.
