Socks and Kickstarter

I know, what a strange title. Well it's all that I've been working on today. Trying to come up with a good name for my new sock pattern has turned into me over-thinking it. So I'm working on the pattern layout, editing and the chart, hopefully by the time I'm done a name will come to me. One thing about my patterns, it is very important to me that each pattern reads like I'm sitting there with you. That you have a knitting instructor taking you step by step.


Now I'm really excited about what I woke up to and have to share it. I was getting a notice on my phone that I received a new email. When I checked there was an email from Kickstarter and I had gotten two people making donations. It made my day. I am so grateful and excited.


Here is a closing thought for you. We tend to always be looking for something big to happen for us in the future, (you know that "one day....) but, what if we applied that same expectation and hope every morning when we got up for just that day? Try it, and see what happens, you have nothing to lose and something amazing to gain.


Blessed Be

Kickstarter Project, Have You Heard

Recently I was having coffee with my daughter and mentioned that with everything that has been going on I realized that if I had just a little boost everything would be taken care of for the Spring and Summer for Smoky Mountain Colors. She suggested that I look into Kickstarter. It's a program that hooks up artists with people who want to invest small amounts into different businesses for tax purposes. So I went and checked it out. MAN, was I surprised at the amount of money that some of these very talented artists raised. I in fact found two that I'm going to support. Anyway, with all that said I jumped in and created my Kickstarter project.  I based my project on just what I need to finish launching Smoky Mountain Colors into the Craft and Fiber Festival world. It's pretty exciting, and each person that donates gets something special from me, according to their donation. So if you have a minute, check out my link.
