Dearest reader,
Welcome to my blog and thank you for checking out my little corner on the web.
To be honest, I’ve been thinking about starting a blog for years. I like to think I’m an active member in the yarn community and I love checking all the lovely blogs which are owned by my fellow creatives. Those blogs are beautiful and inspiring. However, I guess I never felt inspired enough to actually start my own blog. I always felt like my stories would be too boring and uninteresting. I don’t live a very adventurous life and I feared I wouldn’t know what to write about. My introverted tendencies also conflict with sharing personal stuff with people I don’t really know. I am outspoken and have a strong opinion, but that is not always appreciated by everyone. And yet, here I am. Blogging.
So why did I actually create this blog, anyway? It’s hard, and maybe impossible, to pinpoint an exact reason. I don’t expect I’ll post personal stuff on here. That’s not me. I don’t really like social media and exposing my life on the web. My favorite thing about Instagram is that I’m able to focus on what I design and create instead of focussing on myself what I do in life. I plan on keeping things that way, in order to protect my personal space.
However, Instagram doesn’t really provide me with an opportunity to actually tell stories. And even though I am a private person, I’d love to share some of my stories with you. Maybe no personal stories, but I would love to tell you about the time I had a unique opportunity and visited the Fonty yarn factory on the French countryside. Or maybe about the time when I collaborated with Wool and the Gang for their Beginner Campaign. And maybe just a short story about what sparked the inspiration for my latest design…
Until then!
With love,
Sanne
