So long, Blogspot. Hello, Wordpress!

I've been wanting to move my blog away from Blogspot for a while but could never be bothered to actually do it. This week was the tipping point though, and I've now fully migrated over to  https://patsypoomakes.wordpress.com/ . The blogspot address will remain here but all new posts will only appear at  https://patsypoomakes.wordpress.com/ .  There are lots of reasons for the move but my biggest one is how hard Blogger has made it for people to subscribe to receive new posts via email. It's such a basic requirement but apparently, they think it's too much to offer.  I'm basing this purely on how I myself prefer to consume this stuff. I can't be arsed with feed readers anymore and emails are easy and convenient. When I receive one, if I fancy reading it, I will click through to it and, if not, I'll just delete it. Another reason is the spat between Google (owners of Blogger) and Instagram/Facebook/Meta. I don't even know if this is still the case anymore ...

{on the needles} WIP: Flanders Bay has a body

I finally have some progress worth showing on my Flanders Bay jumper. Yeehaa! This year has started to speed up towards the end and I do not like it at all - but at the same time I do, because it means we're getting closer to our holiday. The downside is that I have bucket loads still to sort out and time seems to be running out. It was only a few days ago and I was thinking: "I've got bags of time. It's still September." Errr... Anyway, I finished the body of the jumper. Ta-da: Flanders Bay Pullover
