It's been quite a while since my last video. Today, let's catch up while I unbox my latest order from Hobbii.



Watch the video above to catch up on what's been happening in my life, or read on for the high/low-lights.

To Catch You Up

It's been a rollercoaster of highs and lows since my last video. One of the hardest things I dealt with was that sadly, I lost my beloved rabbit, Peppa, unexpectedly. I struggle to tell this sad news without feeling like I need to say that something positive came out of that, or followed that, because as is often the case, it didn't. It was just a very sad time. I'm sure if you've ever lost a pet you'd understand. May she rest in bunny heaven.

Unfortunately that wasn't the end of our losses of recent times, as around the time Kurtis and i were moving back from Melbourne to be closer to family in greater Sydney, we both each lost a grandmother. My Nanna Pamela, and his Nanny Lee, are both in our hearts eternally.

In other news however, we welcomed Mini and Sasha, adorable additions to our fur family. The combination of them plus Lewie have made every day feel extra special, and they are my reasons to get out of bed on those tougher days.

I left my old job, which had its fair share of drama, and made the leap to pursue video editing full time, a passion I discovered through creating content for you all actually!

Surprisingly or not, I got diagnosed with ADHD! And with that I am proud to say that crocheting has become my latest 'hyperfixation'.

Those are the main things you'd need to know since the last time I posted. Phew, this feels like one of those phone calls with a friend after you've not caught up for a few years, but you know they still care, everyone is just so busy these days!

Speaking of which, to my viewers, your unwavering support and encouragement mean the world to me. Thank you for welcoming me back with open arms. I appreciate you all!

The Hobbii Haul

Now that we've caught up, let's get to unboxing my Hobbii haul! From yarn for baby blankets to materials for crochet bags, I'm diving headfirst into new projects.

Speaking of Hobbii, their mystery bag was a delightful surprise, offering a colourful array of skeins to fuel my creative endeavours.


About 14 balls of cotton yarn in different colours are stacked in a heap. They are blue, orange, cream, red and green.

As I journey into this new phase of content creation, expect more crochet tutorials and pattern releases. Who's with me? Any crochet enthusiasts reading this? Hello?

Until next time, thank you for hanging out with me today. Your presence makes this journey all the more special. Stay tuned for more adventures ahead.

Bye for now!
