Farewell, Typepad, Hello Blogger!

 Dear friends and fellow braiders,

I have been informed that the Typepad service that has been hosting my kumihimo blog will be shutting down effective September 30, 2025.

Thank you all for your kind words about my material and I hope it will continue to allow you to braid happy!
