About me

Hello, internet! 

I blog about yarn-y things and photography -- my two main hobbies.  I would list what specific things "yarn-y" means, but that list would be too long, and I'm constantly adding to it.  I will also, from time to time, throw out random thoughts that have been rattling around in my head for too long.
