Hello and welcome! I’m Holly Chayes

I help makers, thinkers, builders, operators, creators, etc. implement solid containers for creative chaos, and functional systems for sustainable momentum, all in aid of making a life or business you love. 

Right now I’m working with people and businesses in a couple capacities… 

Business

Business coaching and consulting for small businesses ready to dig into the practicalities of what’s next.

When you’ve graduated from mindset-only to mindset+ 

When you’ve built something that functions but doesn’t flow yet.

When you’ve outgrown and overrun what used to work.

Whatever your stuck, we can get you moving on to what’s next.

Individual

Life and clothing magic for individuals who thought they would be more prepared for this moment.

Personal or professional.

Once in a lifetime or every day.

A surprise or something you’ve been working towards for years.

Whatever this moment is, we can get you ready for it.

Short and sweet this week. Shawl Geometry 3 is still with the tech editor. I’m been playing around here and there with some handspun yarn and crochet swatches. I’m working on various back end & admin things for releasing the third updated Shawl Geometry Book. And also getting ready to move at the end of the month.

So my week (and I expect the next couple weeks) will be all about running around doing lots of little things, but we shall see.

Labor Day by the water

Shawl Geometry Book 3 is off my desk and to the marvelous Holly Priestley technical editor extraordinaire for the first round of technical edits!!! Huzzah!

But that does mean there was a bit of a scramble to finish tying up the loose ends before I sent it off. Luckily after I sent it off Monday morning, (which was Labor Day here in the US), I got to spend the rest of my day far away from my desk with absolutely no guilt.

Unfortunately, the tying up the last little bits and pieces meant that I still haven’t dived into any new fibery projects. I know I said this last week, but maybe next week.

Over on Who Wears Who, I styled and wrote about the blue kimono I first made as part of my Self-Made Wardrobe Project. I’ve now had this piece in my closet for over 3 years, and realized that what I love most about it is that it’s had time to collect some fabulous memories associated with it. Come over and read more about the blue kimono here.

Shawl Geometry Book Editing

Who Wears Who PreFall

This week and the next couple days I’m focused on pulling together the loose ends of Shawl Geometry Book Three before it goes to the technical editor in a couple days.

Unfortunately, that means I haven’t picked up any new fiber projects. Maybe next week.

Over on Who Wears Who – I’m realizing that my super easy vacation look also makes for the perfect pre-fall transition look! Who doesn’t love an outfit that can pull double duty?
