Come along for the ride!

So, I've been a little busy with the new side project, with which I am having so much fun! For once, I will have something ready to show off at Rhinebeck, my new Staggered Cables Sweater, which took all of one week to design and knit. I am halfway through another sweater already, though it may not be ready in time. I have also knit about 7 scarves in the past three weeks trying to get enough product available. Add hiring three employees and all of the research that I have been doing, along with a full-time job, and I think that you will agree that I have been just a little busy, which has caused me to neglect my blog once again.

I think every blogger goes through phases when they wonder whether what they have to say is in any way relevant or even interesting. I must admit that I was a little disappointed not to have received more feedback from my friends on my new venture in the comments, but then again, I probably lost most of my readers after my last little hiatus. I did appreciate the lurkers who stepped out of the shadows to friend me on Ravelry, as it makes me realize that many more people read my words than I know. So, how can I make this blog more enjoyable for all involved?

For the past month, I have been keeping notes on my adventures in entrepreneurship and I thought to myself, "Why don't I just post them here so that all of my supporters can come along for the ride?" We all struggle to find content for our blogs and this business will certainly provide me with more than enough copy to keep all of you entertained. Hopefully, these posts will also provide some of you with insights into what is involved and encourage you to take the plunge and get excited about something you love!

Hi Lars,

First comment here, but I'd like to say that I enjoy reading your blog very much. I do, however, tend to read blogs with the help of a RSS/Atom feed (via google reader in my case), and I suspect that many others do, as well. Could you add that feature?

Thanks, and please keep posting!

Normally, I am the big geek in the room, but I must admit, I still can't figure out FeedBurner. It may have something to do with redirecting my blogspot address to my domain name. Anyone care to help me out? Can I set this up through Google Reader?

Thanks so much for the support.

Lars
