Do y’all remember the 2006-2009 era of kids movies that were all about hidden fantasy and adventure and they all had the same vibes but wildly different stories? Cause I do.

Limited NaKniCroMo 2019 Stitch Markers - PREORDER

I’m happy to announce that this year I’m able to get custom engraved stitch markers to commemorate NaKniCroMo 2019! Now available for preorder on Etsy! 

These stitch marker sets will come with 5 hexagon silver stitch markers, engraved with the above text, available for knitting or crochet (ring or clasps!)

Sets will be available for preorder through March 10th. Orders will still be open through April or until we run out of stitch markers whichever comes first. Orders will ship throughout March with all preorders being shipped by the first week of April!

If you’d rather preorder through PayPal, you can message me at @cozysoulcrochet to set that up.

Want to support NaKniCroMo, but you don’t want stitch markers?

You can buy NKCM a Ko-Fi here. All donations will go towards paying for costs such as map hosting, covering stitch marker production costs, future website hosting, and buying new equipment to make cool new merch (like buttons!)

(Don’t know what NaKniCroMo is? Check it out here!)

NaKniCroMo KoFi Link!

Hello! 

Its hard to believe that NaKniCroMo is just over a week away! We’re gearing up beind the scenes to help everything run as smoothly as possible and are super excited to see what everyone creates!

Every year, this event has grown more than we could have anticipated and we’re working hard to keep up! However, we’re starting to outgrow the free online resources! With this in mind, we’ve decided to open a KoFi page for NaKniCroMo (currently under the name of our fabulous founder, CozySoulCrochet)! 

Any funds raised through KoFi will go right back into making NaKniCroMo amazing! This includes things like embedded map software, and up front costs for merch! It also allows us to consider new projects such as hosting our own, dedicated website, creating new swag, and exploring new resources! 

There is no pressure to donate and NaKniCroMo will always be open to all, but if you have the means and want to support our little event, here’s the link!

Immunizing Frogs Against a Killer Fungus

Using a deadly fungus against itself, scientists may have discovered a way to immunize amphibians against a devastating disease. According to a new study published in Nature this week, three frog species can acquire resistance to the killer fungus after repeated exposures. And at least one has also learned to avoid the infectious fungus altogether.
