Why I Stopped Knitting plus an Amazing Book!

I honestly don’t know what happened this year.  I started out the year ready to get so many knitting projects finished, and I was excited.  But, then the baby became a teething running toddler, and finding pockets of time to knit became a thing of the past. I turned around and it was November. How the heck did that happen?!  But, here we are, in November, and I am realizing … [Read more...] about Why I Stopped Knitting plus an Amazing Book!

Back to Knitting and Reading

Knitting is an amazing hobby that I found my way back to right before I had Emma, and since that time I have been knitting pretty regularly.  Well, until this past year!

I feel a bit like a broken record as of late.  I don't seem to be doing a whole lot of knitting, but I am reading a lot and my knitting time has been replaced by gardening.   Now that the garden is mostly in I am hoping to sit down and sketch out my ideas for knitting for the rest of the year.  I know that if I don't have a plan for my knitting, the weeks will continue to pass … [Read more...] about not so much knitting – but planting and reading

Part of my January #tendinglist was to clean out m Part of my January #tendinglist was to clean out my office.  It took me a few days, but I *mostly* finished it and feel a lot better about how things are.

I actually picked the four hardest spaces in my house to declutter in January.  Seeing as how this is being posted today we can all acknowledge that I was way too ambitious 🤪

I made a lot of progress, and know that after I clean out our homeschool space things will be settled in my office as well.
