Hi there

I used to blog a lot. And I loved it. I'd post mostly about my knitting, showing off new yarns and swap packages and finished objects and chatting about my works in progress. Then along came Ravelry and the need to show off my knitting sort of fell away.

I had been toying with the idea of restarting my blog for a long time now. But talking about my projects and yarns seemed repetitive after sharing them on rav and occasionally on twitter. We started a home schooling journey in the last couple years and blogging about that on a knitting blog didn't seem right either. Other aspects of my life didn't really fit either.

So here we are, a fresh start for my blogging voice. There will be knitting content. There will be home schooling chatter. There will be stories about my kids and my husband and my life in general. I might get political (but I'll keep that to a minimum). I hope I'll be funny and interesting enough to keep you reading.

I can't promise that I'll post often. I have lots of ideas of posts I'd like to write but...I've also got 5 kids, two of those are babies and I'm home schooling the three older ones. I've got an awesome group of friends. I've got an amazing husband. I have all this yarn that needs to be knitted into things and fibre that needs to be spun into yarn so it can be knitted. Dudes...I am really busy. So posts might only ever get written in my head. Hell, this might be the only one that ever gets published. Who knows what will happen? I'm hoping to post regularly and maybe I can make it a habit.

I'm still working on how the blog will look. My husband is working on some artwork for the header, I'm tweaking the colours and the look. So don't be surprised if it looks different every time you pop by for the next little while.

With all that said...let's get started.
