Hello Hello Fiber Folks!!
This video is a follow up to my 2023 video on de-influencing yarn. It feels like most if not all of the knitting content creators have resolved to purchase less yarn in 2024. I imagine that a lot of the knitters in our communities and viewerships are in similar positions. I really think that if we're going to set ourselves up for success in achieving these goals, regardless of how loosely or firmly they are defined, it is important that we set ourselves up for success. For that to be possible, we need to talk about yarn guilt and other actionable strategies for consuming less yarn.
I want to note that this video is meant to be part of a conversation, and this is a journey that I am on along with you. None of these sentiments come from a place of judgement, and a lot of these thoughts come from my own reflections on feelings surrounding my own consumption over time. So this is a friendly reminder to please be gentle to me, to others, and (of course) to yourselves as we have this discussion.
I'll also mention that although I do not delve into the sustainability aspects of yarn consumption in this video I do think it is an important aspect of the conversation, perhaps for another video.
I would love to continue this conversation in the comment section. Let me know what's on your mind!!
Wishing you wellness and happy knitting :)
Emily
