Spreading Warmth

Last July, my local yarn shop held its annual Charity Knit Night. Each year, we get together over wine and pizza, and knit squares to be sewn into a blanket. I always look forward to this night. There's something so healing about getting together with friends and creating something meaningful. I watched so many hands, including my own, bring this blanket together.

The fact that I felt so invested in this project made it all the more incredible when, on Thursday night, that blanket was raffled off to raise money for our local homeless shelter, and I won!!


Right now, with temperatures dropping and the heating system in my apartment working rather inconsistently, I can think of no better place to be than under this blanket - my beautiful, cozy, blanket made by some of my favorite people for some of the best reasons. Nothing could make me feel warmer.
