I think we’ve all been hoping this new year would be a fresh start. After one heck of a 2020, there’s no way 2021 could be worse…right? As we all learned last year, there’s no way to really tell what the year will bring. We can only start off with a blank slate and do our best to fill it with good things.

This tee was made for designers and non-designers alike to get a little creative. The simple feature rectangle can be filled with anything your heart desires, from a special single skein, to your favourite stitch pattern, to a fun colourblock or colourwork design. It’s a reminder that each day is a blank canvas for you to turn into a beautiful work of art.

“Happiness is not a destination. It is something we need to work towards every day. It is loving yourself; taking the time and the respect to look after yourself because self-love and self-care is not inherently selfish. It’s just what we need to do to get through every fcking day.“
