An open and honest letter…
Dearest customers and friends,
My little business has been suffering these past few months simply because I do not have the time to give it what it needs to flourish. As most of you know, we have five wonderful young children, the apples of our eyes, and the reasons we get up every day to make a difference in the world. People ask me all the time, “How do you do it?” The most honest answer is, I don’t. Inevitably, some things get pushed to the back burner or let go of completely. So I have this constant underlying tug-of-war going on in my head and my heart that’s sort of always there, like white noise in the background. Our kids take priority, or at least that’s what my ultimate goal is, but trying to be present with them and attentive to their needs, their activities, etc. has brought me to the realization that in this season of my life, I simply have to let something go. So for now, dear friends, I am going to close Daisy Hill Yarns. I don’t want to think of it as a permanent solution, so perhaps an extended hibernation. Nothing stays the same for long, and I know the kids will grow, and in the years to come I will have more time. There’s just so much growing, learning, changing that the kids are doing right in front of me. Time is such a thief, and they have but one childhood, so I’m going to make the most of it.
I have loved every single moment of the past 3+ years at Daisy Hill Yarns. I have loved creating, collaborating, and designing with you. I have loved watching my little yarn babies go out into the world and be lovingly crafted into something beautiful to be treasured by you. I want to sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this road with me.
I will continue to share my creations from different mediums. I have set up a new account, and I hope you will join me there and follow along with what we are creating - knitting, dyeing, spinning, sewing, pottery, cooking/baking, and kids’ art. I would love to see you there! xoxo♥️
