How my diagnose gave me purpose

🪡☕

Hi my fellow neurodivergent and neurotypical friends! Whether you’re on the spectrum like me or not, I hope this can be a warm, cozy and creative corner where we can all slow down from the chaos of the world.

I have always been introverted, sensory-aware, deeply creative, routine-loving, and one who uses making as regulation and comfort. I didn't always understand myself and I struggled to accept these aspects of myself at times. Turning a string of yarn into a garment, creating a routine with my hands, repeating the same movements, gave sense to so many things in my mind. I hold this activity very close to my heart and it makes me emotional to think that I was lucky enough to discover this world.

So✨… Here I am, exploring a different type of yarn shop. I'm embarking in an adventure of putting myself out there and hoping I meet people that, like me, enjoy  solitary hobbies, process emotions through making, prefer calm spaces, feel overwhelmed socially, and connect deeply through shared interests instead of constant social energy.

Textures and color harmony are at the heart of how I curate my yarn selections. My hope is that each one brings you a sense of peace and a pleasant sensory experience.

With love… Ashley <3
