Hello friends! Today, I'm bringing you a knitting project! My knitting projects are usually very slow going, knit here and there over many, many months. But this cardigan was super quick!

From there, the idea of swapping all disposable period products for eco-friendly period products interested me, and you’ll see those reviews soon. I finally landed on the decision to grow Earth Day into Earth Month to take you along my journey of creating an eco-friendly bathroom in the hopes of helping you do the same.
