To be honest, it seems like I have been writing this blog for a very long time. Yet according to WordPress records, I wrote my very first post on April 11, 2007.

I started this blog for the selfish reason of promoting my Etsy store, the very store that I have removed the lion’s share of my inventory from. I would have closed it months ago if it wasn’t for my affiliation with the Etsy Knitters Street Team.

I keep writing because I love it. Some days, it is my motivation to actually finish the knitting/sewing/quilting project that I started. Other days, it is my outlet for frustration. Mostly, it is a place where I can come and share my hobbies with other people who understand and are just as passionate as I am about them. Dan is sweet and supportive, but he has never once elicited the correct response to a skein of yarn or a bolt of fabric. 

I have met some wonderful people via this blog; people that I refer to as my friends. It is time that I properly thanked each and every one of you who reads my blog and sends me lovely comments.

Properly = with Free Yarn

For example,

To win, just leave me a comment. I’ll randomly pull a number, or 2 or 3 numbers, out of a hat (i.e. use a random number generator) on Monday of next week, April 20th.
