I have had it in my mind to finally set up this website and blog for absolutely ages, and I haven’t got to it due to the pressures of the day job. Which is fine, but now I’m here, and I find it a very odd time to start anything! There is such a sense of unease in the world, and it’s easy to feel a bit frivolous when we focus on anything else.
I don’t know about you, though, but I think we do need to focus on other things. A bit. While there’s lots that is going on in the world that absolutely needs our attention, it really doesn’t need our attention every minute of every day. In fact, if we give it all of our attention we will just start to feel more and more anxious. More and more stressed. More and more hopeless. Which probably won’t help us much in the end. And so, I’m embracing it.
Here is my new blog where I will talk about my designs and knitting (and potentially other crafty adventures). I will take that few minutes for myself to not worry about the seriousness of the world, and maybe it will give that few minutes to someone else too.
