Jess Makes With Yarn

Busting textile waste one item at a time!

Hello there, as an AuDHD individual I have always had many interests and hobbies, knit and crochet as well as all things yarn is one that has stuck around. In recent years I have realised that crafting is my stim/ self regulatory mechanism and as I am so passionate about the environment I didn't want to continue making myself things that I didn't really need.

From this internal turmoil and conflict I came up with the solution of making for enjoyment and then selling the end result and here we are! I have a substantive yarn collection that I am slowly working through and I am challenging myself to only buy new materials where necessary to use up what I already have.

Going forwards when I do need to buy new materials I am trying to buy second hand and recycled to have minimal environment impact. If you would like to follow my journey you can join me on youtube or find me on kofi if blogs are more your thing.
