All the beautiful plants that thrived in my brightly lit South Philadelphia home, all slowly withered away in my Florida hovel. I was truly heartbroken.

I began to buy new plants and carefully follow their "low maintenance" instructions. Over and over again I was met with the same disappointing fact that these plants deserved so more than I could provide them under such dense canopy cover. I had to come up with a solution.

I need life. I crave color. I bloom from people coming into my home and squealing with delight, sharing my joy for my beautiful plant babies. I longed for long conversations of plant characteristics, passing of tips and tricks, and the ever beautiful phrase "Can I please have a clipping!?"

I dug deep into my stash of yarn and found the perfect shade of green, the perfect shade of pink, and created the end of my plant murdering spree.

Each Little Prick is joyfully designed with love and respect for all the plants we've involuntarily put out of their misery. May they always grow in our hearts.
