REELS

Reaching into the depths of my confidence to do this one. I’ve embraced social media in most of its forms over the years, but I’m not one for doing live chatty stuff or being in front of the camera. I guess it’s a generation thing, I didn’t grow up with that thin, rectangular communication box attached to my hand and face. Even if I do use it a lot, I’m not using it like those who don’t remember a time when it didn’t exist.

So here goes, I’m going to embrace the unknown and do my first Reel. I’ve been making a new bag recently and I absolutely love it, so I think I’ll make it the star of my first reel.

To be honest, I intended on uploading my a really professional looking and completed reel in this post, but I’m still getting my head around it all. When I manage to work it all out and successfully create my first one without making myself look like a total technophobe, I’ll get it out there.

To the right you'll see my first attempt. Please feel free to have a giggle at my expense. Cringe!🤦‍♀️

Life has been somewhat topsy turvy for the past few years. With Covid affecting the whole world and then my own little world being challenged with the tedium that comes with trying to sell my house and move to somewhere new; I've been feeling somewhat overwhelmed. The one constant in my life has been my yarns, hooks and needles. I honestly think they are to thank for getting me through the past four years with a semblance of sanity in tact.

If I was to rank 2022 on a scale of 1 - 10, it's a solid 5. Neither wonderful nor disastrous, in school report terms, "could do better". A new life and a new start is in reaching distance, I just have to be patient. I’ll keep doing the right things to make it happen and hopefully, before long I’ll be sharing with you my new adventure.

This day was always going to come, the day I say au revoir to all of you who signed up to my newsletters, visited my website, bought my products and offered kind words of support. Many of you did that regularly and I’m really grateful.

It took a pandemic to make me realise that I am enough. Yes, the me that I am today is more than enough, I don’t need to be anything more. I discovered that I don’t need to wear make-up and wash my hair every day (yes, I used to wash it every day - how ridiculous was that) and my pared back wardrobe was more than enough too.
