Double post but so worth it because we need to help Mandi @rosieposiedesignco get her account restored. @instagram @instagramforbusiness please help this sweet girl fix what was so horribly taken from her. Her account was hacked and now all she has worked for and out her heart and soul into has been taken from her. Mandi is one of the most caring, funny, helpful ppl and I’m so glad I’ve met her through this forum. She has too much to offer to be out in this position. Please share and help restore this page and bring back my funny friend Mandi #bringbackmandi #helpsaverosieposiedesignco #instagram #instagrambuisness #hacked #notcool #nothappy #sadpanda #share

Sooo how’s everyone’s new year starting off?? Are you feeling good about your decisions so far?? Setting new goals was something I needed to do for me. Some of those feel good goals!! Well say helllo to this piece of art!!!! I’m doing it guys. I’m fricken knitting a SWEATER!!!!! #getawaysweater @alwhandmade and I’m so in LOVE..... Amanda treated me to this pattern so I could give it a go and boom check it out so far. I’m like a kid in a candy store. Giddy as anything. I’m kin...da annoying myself. LOL Amanda has written this pattern with such finesse, super clear and easy to follow. I was petrified but honestly if I can do this you can too!!! I’ve had some motivation along the way and I will credit my gal pal when finished. Stay tuned. I’m on a small mission to finish this beauty. I’m using #yarnsiprations #bernatpremiumtweeds in Rainbow tweed. Ugh all the frigen feels right here. Keep setting those goals and crushing them. It’s truly uplifting. #getawaysweater #knit #knitsweaters #topdownsweater #worsted #worstedyarn #goals #newgoals #newyear #motivate #knittingismysuperpower #supportyourfriends #justkeepknitting #knittersgonaknit #womansupportingwomen
