During the winter I became obsessed with crocheting berets. I think they are super cute and fashionable. I love this particular pattern I found because it creates a braided look. I did end up modifying it to look more the way I wanted it too.
I ended up making a hat for my little sister as well. I had to drastically change the pattern to fit her head size since her head is smaller. I am not sure it turned out quite as well as I wanted it to but she loves it and that is what matters.
Sometimes as sisters we do not always get along. We get frustrated with each other but in the end, we love each other very much. She is the one I watch Merlin and Pride and Prejudice with. She is always excited about the little things with me.
She is also my sister with disabilities. This makes things hard sometimes. When I want to take her out and do sister things with her I notice if there is an accessibility issue. She uses a wheelchair and I have to make sure she can move through space. We recently took a sister trip to Ulta and I don't know if it is just the Ulta I was at or all Ulta's but there wasn't a push button to open the door. I also noticed that the spacing in the isles makes it hard for a wheelchair to move. My sister is in a small child size wheelchair but a full-sized adult one or some of the motorized wheelchairs would have a lot of difficulties moving through the store. It made me think about who our society deems worthy to be considered beautiful and who is allowed to access the beauty products and industry.
