Weekly Publisher Note January 23-30. 2025

By Jodi Lorence, Macaroni Kid Publisher January 22, 2025

Welcome Friends,

Do any of you have a hobby or hobbies? I LOVE to knit and it has been such a productive, peaceful, and great way to spend my time indoors during the bitter cold weather here in Minnesota. I have made many many socks, 3 cowls, and cute little baby booties and baby sweaters. A cup of coffee, my knitting project and my new comfy glider rocker is all I need to find peace and enjoy my "ME" time. I have a number of other hobbies but knitting is my favorite because I can easily take it in the car, to a hockey game, out of town, wherever I go, my knitting project can come along. You are never to young or old to take up the hobby of knitting. I was taught when I was 4 by my mom and grandm and I have been knitting ever since. I have visited MANY yarn stores both in Minnesota and all the states that I have traveled to. Oh, and knitting just isn't for winter. I knit just as much during all the months of the year. 

I hope you all have found something that you enjoy and brings you peace when you take some time for yourself. We all deserve that.


"I think everybody has something that takes them away or makes them happier. 

To some people it's baseball or reading or sports or knitting or the movies."
