Hello Reader 💕🌸

It's been a week full of baby snuggles over here! 🥹 I am so grateful for this job that lets me work my schedule around babysitting and time with my favorite little people — though I'll admit, it can make hitting all of my work goals each week a bit of a juggling act! 😅

Today was the first day this week without any outside commitments, so the plan was simple: get in the office and bang out a bunch of work. Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans — the power went out just 30 minutes into my morning. And stayed out for four hours! Trying not to let it rattle me, I decided it was the perfect time to squeeze in some crochet, even though it was still pitch dark outside. Thankfully my trusty neck light was fully charged and ready for the job! 😅

Once the power finally came back on, I was able to get the first hat in my Wildlife Animal Hat series live on the blog — yay! I've been working on these hats for the last couple of months, and I am so glad I can finally share them with you all. This adorable Panda Hat comes in 6 sizes, from Newborn through Teen, so all the panda-loving littles in your life can have one!

The Amber Sunset Scarf has been so popular already — I'm so glad you're all loving it! Be sure to check the blog Sunday, because the matching hat will be making its debut too!

To keep the momentum going in my brand new Community, I'll be sharing a previously unreleased, brand-new pattern exclusively there in the next week — first look, first access. It'll eventually land on the blog and in the Lifetime Membership, but for now, this one's just for my Community members. Join now (FREE!) so you'll get notified the moment it's ready!

Here's a little sneak peek 👀

Have a wonderful weekend and happy crocheting 🌸
