As the fog begins to clear
I have been thinking about this space a lot these past weeks.
But not getting here and writing.
My words have been stuck, fogged up, unclear.
The rhythm of my days has changed so much since I first began to write this blog. Over the last months Handmade At Poshyarns has slowly but surely become my actual work, a real job in fact, it's work I love but work nonetheless. It shapes my days and fills my mind and as it has grown I have found it hard to find my path in this space. I don't want to tell you about sewing and craft fairs in every post, I am sure that's not what you want to hear about either. This worry has niggled and gnawed at my thoughts, the more I think about it the harder it is to write anything at all.
But as stood on the edge of the field today and watched the edges of the fog begin to burn away, I felt a warmth in the sun and my thoughts became clearer and brighter.
For all I need to do is open up Blogger and write.
Somehow the words will come and somehow it will be OK. This space is changing, evolving gently but that is how it should be, for that's what life is all about. Thank you all who continue to read, your comments and presence means so very much.

I can't believe I've been blogging to 5 yrs and 1 day! Sometimes I wonder why, but when I remember all the lovely people I've met (that's really met in real life) whom I would not have met without starting my blog, it makes sense again.
And sometimes it's good just to post a picture and write a few words to remind myself that there's more to my day than all the crap stuff that's going on.
I love your photos today, they show perfectly how the sun melts the mist away in this part of the world.

I enjoy all of my visits here so much. I'm sure you could write your shopping list and still find a way of making it beautiful and uplifting.
May the fog clear permanently and the sun shine through brightly! x
And we are all fully aware that life evolves and days are full and there are still only 24 hours in them.
I started reading blogs to meet like-minded people all over the world, I love to hear what's happening in peoples lives, or their simplest of thoughts. On bad days I can be sure somebody's post will always cheer me up.
Whatever you write it will be appreciated.

Like you, I started out writing a knitting blog and over the last 2-3 years it's gone beyond knitting. Sometimes I blog about my lunch or other mundane things. Sometimes I wonder who would want to read such things. Sometimes I wonder who is still reading my blog. But then I realised my blog is not only for readers. It is also for me. An outlet for me to talk about things that I feel like talking about.
I may not always comment here, but I am still following your blog and I do read your posts. Take care, it's good to know that your business is growing and that you love it!
For one, I do enjoy reading about and seeing your little creations and knowing your business is growing. Any photo you post is sue to be lovely. Even a few words written will be worth it to me.
I think that many of us who are challenged for time to blog or to keep up with blogs that we've somehow connected with, just find that we find the time, when we can find that time.
There really is something about being able to write and photograph whatever we wish, and generously set it out on to the www much as we might have launched a message in a bottle into the sea as children.
That launch was fun, an experiment, a gesture of friendship to someone we'd not ever met. Yet.
The photos that you've included in this post are perfect company for your writing.

Happy knitting and happy LIVING
