It's a lot of responsibility to place on one brand, but the founder behind LoLo Body's world-class solid moisturizer isn't cracking under the pressure. Instead, she's reinventing self-care, building connections, promoting creative adventures, and working for a sustainable future.   LoLo Body Care has been sponsoring us for years. As twisted as 2020 has been, LoLo Body Care is determined to go beyond handcrafting eco-luscious moisturizers - they're changing the conversation in the indie skincare industry. LoLo Body has evolved beyond waste reduction. They're focused on creating a healthy future through innovation and inspiration by creating processes, products, and packaging regenerative and circular, instead of destructive and linear. They say it's handcrafted, but it really comes from the heart.    Their message for 2021 (besides a healthy future for people, planet, and products). Let's all increase our creative adventures and actively create a planet where the only pandemic is one of kindness.   On the Needles:(0:46) Gigi finished knitting the Pointed Firs shawl out of smokey grey, needs to be blocked  Jasmin is about halfway on her (RAVELRY LINK) The Betty and Judy Lodge Sweater, knit in Little Skein Harvest sport “Blue Christmas” Jasmin opened her Advent stitch markers from WeeOnes Gigi is knitting on the heel of the (RAVELRY LINK)  Sashay socks from the Operation Sock Drawer book at Hicklebee's   Jasmin has made some progress on the L’Escargot Bleu shawl (by Espace Tricot) in Sea Change Fibers by The Dye Project Ecola Worsted.  Gigi is enjoying the (RAVELRY LINK) Excavation, a diagonal fringed scrap blanket out of leftover sock yarn.
