welcome!
My name is Stephanie, and Working Yarns is my knitting blog / newsletter that also features crochet, mending, and sewing. Handcraft is a powerful tool for mind, body, and spirit, and connects us to our ancestors, the earth, and each other.
I hope you’ll join me here for tales of craft, helpful tutorials, inspiring project blogs, and a bit of my take on connecting to the self and the community through hand-work. There may be the occasional personal essay in there as well.
I have an IG, a Substack, etc., (also workingyarns) but I am moving away from those platforms and the endless scroll. For all of the connection it can bring, it is ultimately not great for my mental health, and I don’t want to contribute to the goals of the tech billionaires that controll those spaces. Eventually, I hope to have everything in my inbox – lovely newsletters that I can manage more easily and require longer spans of my attention. In the meantime, feel free to check out those links, and certainly sign up for my newsletter(s) if you’d like!
