Dear Lovely Peeps, This is from an honest & not-entirely-happy blog post by #TheodoraGoss - but I loved the imagery of this excerpt: "One of the best things I’ve done recently is left my #knitting on the sofa. It’s a bit messy, but across the sofa is draped a scarf of rainbow yarn, green and yellow and orange and red and blue and purple, all fading into each other, like the stages of sunset. I chose the easiest project imaginable — I’m literally just knitting one row after another, with the colors of the dyed yarn making the only pattern. That means at any time of day, I can sit down for a few minutes and knit another row, without thought or planning. Sit, knit, watch the colors develop. Joy!" I love this image. 🥰 She ends with: "Small joys. Try to find the small joys. They will get you through — they are, sometimes, the only things that will get you through. And then, when you can, work for a better world." The entire post is here: https://theodoragoss.com/2026/03/29/small-moments-of-joy/ #Joy #SmallGoodThings
