(Tittel: Joy - Bastille)
Joy - when you come home and find something else than bills and brochures in the mail box. Joy - when you open up and find one of your favorite colors. Small joys, but it can turn a bad day around. At least to me. I joined the Solidarity Swap at Ravelry, a swap arranged in the aftermath of the race discussion in the knitting community. And I say aftermath, but it is an ongoing discussion. I embrace it, and the changes that follows. It's noticeable. It really is. I see BIPOC modeling knitwear everywhere nowadays. And it's beautiful to observe. Back to my post, I received a beautiful skein of purple sock yarn. I love it! The yarn is from Sticks & Cups. It's handyed in Utrecht, The Netherlands, and the owner is a refugee from Iran. I love the different shades of purple in it, and I love that it's local for the person who sent it to me. I also got a very cute stitch marker. What a great gift, and I can't wait to find something I can knit with this lovely skein.
