Regrouping

Thank goodness it's the weekend.  This has been an extra stressful week, and I need a couple days to regroup.  I plan to do a lot of knitting.

If you're keeping tabs on the calendar, I've updated the schedule in the right sidebar.  Next week I have a trunk show at Knit Tuck & Purl.  It runs April 16, 17, 18, 21 and 22.

This shop opened last fall, and they're hosting three trunk shows at the same time.  If you haven't visited the shop, this is a good opportunity to check it out.  Stop by if you're in the Boston area.

We've had our share of grey spring days, but it helps to have something colorful to chase the gloom away.  This week's color inspiration . . .

Sunny yellow.

Background Noise

Today is the day.  I'm finally coming up for air.  I've been on the go with fiber events, and it's been great fun.  Thanks to everyone who has stopped by the booth.  It's nice to check in and chat.

When I haven't been dealing with events, most of my time has been occupied with all the noise running in the background.  I've lost track of how much time I've spent on tariffs.  Yes, I thoroughly understand how tariffs work, but the implications for my business are more than a little murky.  Toss in some tech problems on top of that.  Let's just say I haven't had much downtime.

When I manage to grab a break here and there, I'm knitting.  Always knitting.


If you're struggling with all the chaos too, keep your needles close.
