27th Birthday. Some thoughts + 27% discount on crochet patterns.

Hi,

February 20th has unexpectedly come again, so I’m turning 27 today. 🎂 💗 

A lot? A little? I used to think it was a lot, but today, I feel like it’s still not much. Every year, I think I’ve become much wiser, and then the next year, I look back and realize there were still so many things I didn’t know…

This past year, I focused on growing my small business—experimenting with what works and what doesn’t, attending many markets, and spending countless hours developing ideas, crochet patterns, and products. There were definitely some tough moments, but also so many great ones!

I also worked hard to find my rhythm in a new place. I thought that after a year and a half of living here, I’d have everything figured out, but I’ve realized that some things still need to change. I also need to make more time just for myself. ☺️ 

Since crocheting has become not only my passion but also my full-time job, I’ve realized that I need something more - just for me. So, at the start of the year, I finally took the first step toward a long-time dream—I signed up for drawing and painting lessons! 😊 🎨 

This year, I also put a lot of effort into improving my Instagram—my graphics, my videos—and I’m so happy that so many of you enjoy them! It gives me so much motivation to keep going! Every heart and comment means the world to me! Every message about your crochet creations makes my day!

Thank you so, so much for being on this journey with me. 🥰 

I’ve said it before—I’m not great at summarizing a year or making big plans for the future. But I do know that I want to keep growing my small business while also finding more time to take care of myself.

And one thing is certain—I’m not stopping crocheting this year! And you too, keep crocheting! 😁 

To celebrate my 27th birthday, I’m offering 27% off all my crochet patterns on Etsy—just for today! Because why not? 😉 If there’s a pattern you’ve had your eye on, now’s the perfect time! [browse crochet patterns here]
