Thank you for being so real and for such a wonderful update! January for me as a creative is my dyeing time. I love to add color to fabrics and yarn when it’s so not colorful outside. It’s also a time to sit in a cozy chair and play with yarn in the form of crochet motifs and colors. I look forward to hearing from other creatives about their January journey. Thanks for this new option to connect❤️

Hi Kristin and Friends of Kristin! I do love shopping at Kalusytan's, but I'd like to introduce you to a young spice company who products I've been enjoying the past year: Diaspora https://www.diasporaco.com/ It was founded by a young Indian woman who buys directly from farmers even before the harvest -- like a spice CSA. The quality is out of this world and the families earn better than fair trade prices.

I always look forward to reading your newsletters and checking out your links. Today, reading about your sheep and lambs has taken me back to my childhood on a dairy farm. I can almost smell the sweet, milky odor of a lamb!

I've been knitting my way through autumn and winter, and nursing a broken foot as well. Six weeks of not walking on my foot, then eight weeks of wearing a boot brace has given me lots of sitting time that's just perfect for knitting. And it's kept me safely isolated at home during the pandemic.

I have a question for you: I want to do some color work, and my stash of Color by Kristin has dwindled. I'm having a difficult time finding good quality yarn for stranded color work. Do you have any suggestions? Color by Kristin is such a great yarn. I miss it!

So sorry to hear Webs has been sold. I hope it can maintain its uniqueness.

I just love to read all your articles and always look forward to the beautiful colorful project you share with us. The pictures of the baby lambs are darling. You are so very talented. I miss seeing you on the create channel it's just not the same without you. Keep crafting
