Today was a good day. Beautiful weather, a productive morning, an early afternoon hike, a visit with family, a chat with a friend, and a relaxing, meditative evening to myself. I'm grateful. #gratitude #grateful #findingthejoy

Books and knitting give me joy, and I just wrote about why it's important for us to double down on finding joy in our lives right now. Especially those of us who live in America. natureismytherapy.com/2025/08/16/d... 🧶♥️📚😍🇺🇸 #booksky #knitsky #reading #bugsky #findingthejoy
Doubling Down on Finding the Joy
For many years I’ve used #findingthejoy on my social media posts about things that bring meaning and pleasure to my life. Living amid massive political turbulence has made me question whether…

Does this sound familiar? My yellow honeysuckle is just coming into bloom and I had yarn dyed with buddleia giving this vibrant shade, so my brain said to put these together and start another Honeysuckle Helix scarf. Happy Monday everyone 😄 #ShowMeYourKnits #knitsky #findingthejoy

Even after the knitting is done, I enjoy the preparations for blocking my knits -- fitting together the puzzle pieces of the mat, slowly threading blocking wires through a scarf, pinning it to shape. Every aspect of this craft is meditative and healing. #knitsky #knitting #yarn #findingthejoy 🧶💚

Happy to be in my cozy summer #knitting spot, on a new swing tucked into a corner of my garden. My view is of the dragonfly pond and numerous beds of native plants. Working on my Geo top in organic cotton yarn in a pale blue. #knitsky #garden #pond #findingthejoy #happyplace #wip #introvert
A brown 3-seater swing with canopy. A small turquoise table in front of the swing holds my knitting and water bottle. Behind the swing is a large ninebark shrub in full bloom. My knitting swing is about 15 ' from this pond, home to dragonflies, snails, and toads. Small natural pond ringed with flagstone edging. A few tall plants emerge from the water, and clusters of water hyacinths float on the surface. Partially knitted top on a circular needle, in light blue yarn, lying on dark brown seat of the swing.

Today saw the collision of #IndieBookstoreDay and #LYSDay (local yarn shop), and I could not be happier! Books from Gathering Volumes & yarn from Chickadee Knit Studio, both in Perrysburg, OH. #reading #knitsky #Findingthejoy Unexpected find: a young adult sci-fi trilogy for this grown-ass adult.

Purchased! I'm thrilled to discover you and your special approach to designing and writing patterns, Abi. I'm a native plant advocate here in the States, and this is such a fun way to tie my love of plants to my love of knitting.🌿🧶💚 #plantnative #findingthejoy

Only SIX days until the Great Lakes Fiber Show! Excitedly previewing yarn vendors and planning my shopping list. It always does my soul good to be immersed in colorful fibers and surrounded by fellow knitters. 🧶💚 #knitsky #knitting #Ohio #findingthejoy #wool

Just saw someone on a motorcycle fist pump because they got through the light before it turned red. (He was the last one that did)
It made me smile.
It also reminded me to celebrate the little things.

Making fast progress on my Interlude shawl. I'm absolutely in love with this yarn color! A cold north wind on this sunny day makes it very comfortable to knit in the car, watching the trees blowing and listening to stories from the Moth radio hour. #findingthejoy #kermit #green #knitsky #npr #happy
