When I first started university I was in one of my tutorials and we had a ‘get to know you’ round. We had to introduce ourselves and tell the group if we could be any other animal what would we be and why. Most of the class said lovely things like lions, dolphins, butterflies and birds. I said I’d want to be a yeti cause then I could just chill out in the bush and not have anything to do with humans (I was still a teenager OK). In hindsight this might not of been the best thing to say in a human development and behaviour class, but I thought I was clever.
Anyhoo, I’ve had a mild interest in the hairy blighters ever since. And I was super delighted recently to discover the existence of yowies in austrayalia. I always thought they were chocolates but apparently this big red continent has its own hairy ones thumping around.
My beloved has his own yowie story which definitely involves thumping so I’m super excited to go stay out there and find one of these beauties!
So imagine my delight when I discovered Megan Whitmarsh. Megan makes yeti embroidery art!
This is my favourite of them all and there’s tons so go check them out.
Megan also makes films and books and does ace drawings, all based on yeti themes. It’s so wonderful and a great way to start a saturday!
