Free Bird Threads Co.

Happy New Year!!!
2023 was an interesting year for me especially the last 3 months. My father was diagnosed with dementia in 2022 and his condition has gotten worse the last few months so I’ve been seeing him more. On top of that I’ve had constant ear and sinus infections to the point that my hearing has gone bad and that’s been an adjustment period so I haven’t been extremely present in this space.

What I would like to accomplish in 2024 for freebirdthreadsco.co:

1. Release at least 2 patterns. I’ve made a few but haven’t written any up and I’d like to accomplish doing that.

2. Post more on here. I’ve become slack with posting progress photos or even finished pieces.

3. Possibly branch out and offer finished pieces online on Etsy or even the new Micheals maker site.

4. Not be so hard on myself. I haven’t released any patterns in a long time and that’s because I have this negativity about not being good enough to do so because what I like to create isn’t trendy. This year I’m going to try and get out of that funk and do what I like to do.
Anyway if you read all of that Thank You so much!
Here’s to a new year and new possibilities!

Day 10 of the and the color for today is purple!
I have a nice little stack of purple covers.
Have you read any of these titles?
Pattern I chose was the Kiah cardigan by . I made this earlier this year and it’s definitely one of my favorites. So warm and comfy. You can find this pattern free on her blog or you can buy the pdf from a few different sites. She also has this pattern as a kit from which comes with the pattern pdf and all the yarn you need to make the cardigan.
