About me

Hello and welcome! I’m Esha, mom of twins (one in my arms, one in my heart), and two pitties. My patterns are all available here for free with the option to buy the ad-free PDF on Ravelry.

I started out selling my hand crocheted and knit items before deciding to focus on designing and selling my patterns. I donate half of all my income to Kiran’s Fund for Pulmonary Hypoplasia Research the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in memory of my dear baby, Kiran, who passed from the condition shortly after birth. I do still have an Etsy page for a few of my made to order items (e.g. Pride flag earrings and pussycat hats)

I also post a lot about grief, and share a lot of grief posts from others experiencing loss on my Instagram and corresponding Facebook pages.

We always welcome and appreciate direct donations to Kiran’s Fund. Donate here

The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is the only institution studying the neurodevelopmental and other long-term outcomes of patients with diagnoses that cause pulmonary hypoplasia.

Following children from birth throughout childhood ensures optimal outcomes and helps us to gain a better understanding of how this condition affects children over the long term.

My pronouns are she/her and I am cis-het, but I will always be an active ally. I support LGBTQIA+ rights, universal healthcare for all, public daycare/Pre-K, feeding the hungry, mental health and work support for our veterans. I grew up watching Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street and will always support public television and public libraries. I shop local whenever I can. I support all children of the world and will fight tooth and nail against genocide of any kind. I have never and will never shop at Hobby Lobby or eat at Chic-Fil-A.

Oh, and FDT.

I also love all animals, but dolphins are my absolute favorite. Alas, I can’t exactly keep a dolphin as a pet, so I “settled” for the two bestest pittie mixes in the whole world. See Toby (brown and white, 11yo), and Junie (black and white, 4 yo) below:
