Ep 025: Why I'm closing The Loveliest Yarn Company

Hello lovelies,

Welcome to Episode 25 of the Get Knit Done podcast! Still not quite back to knitting chat but closing a knitting business is knitting adjacent so I'm going to go with it : )

There were a lot of factors that went into the decision to close the Loveliest Yarn Company but mostly it's because I can't do everything and nor do I want to. I also talk about how in time, I want to have a completely digital business that I can take home to Ireland with me and how teaching knitting is something I'm very passionate about!

I think it's important to get to a point where you know what you want to do but most importantly what you are not going to do! For me it's been an important life lesson but also a knitting one. We all feel so much pressure to hustle all the time and I'm not sure that is good for any of us.

In next week's episode, we will be back to knitting when I'll be talking about the Knit School Quiz (take it here now if you just can't wait!) and the Wheel of Knitting!

Take care lovelies, now go Get Knit Done!
