| Introduction | Hi there, and welcome to Wooly Embrace. I’m Valery. I’m a Philly girl who walked the world a while before settling in the gorgeous Pacific Northwest. I now spend my time parenting, housekeeping, homeschooling, and drowning in yarn. I believe in creating beauty and warmth, literally. Knitting and crochet, and sometimes even sewing, are not just creative passions for me personally, but how I express my love to those I embrace with my wool. And cotton. And bamboo. And, well, you get the idea. Join me for project journaling, pattern designing, tutorials, product reviews and recommendations, and more than a few wooly embraces. |
