Friday Progress
11 Dec 2020 07:10 pmI got a lot further on my triangle shawl as well as the green rectangular 18" rigid heddle. I cut a YouTube video for those not following along on FB or Twitter,

Typically I seldom see anyone on FB who isn't another vendor. I, myself, have taken to going direct to some people's feeds because the FB algorithm is not your friend. I keep getting the same posts from 24 hours ago even if no one new has commented. It's frustrating. Instagram is better but you cannot link with hypertext to another page. I am not actually sure who is really following me anymore. It's like shouting into the void. It seems to coincide with the new FB look. I am only getting posts from about 6 people. I've noticed other people I follow have had a drop in commentary and likes. FB has taken Amazon's approach that if you don't have a significant number of likes or followers, your content is considered garbage. Your feed gets back-burnered, delegated to a remote unpopular corner of the internet. I also have almost no one who responds to weekend posts. I see why companies hire a social media person to hawk their products. There is a continually changing learning curve going on. What to post, how to post it and more importantly, when to post. Chronographia is having the same problem with Instagram. I just happen to notice way more advertising on Instagram. It's well tailored to my likes and dislikes. It's something to think about.
Today's goals have been met. I am about 10" from finishing the rigid heddle shawl. I know that each shot looks very similar to the last. I may have to shoot another rigid heddle video soon. That's all for this week. Have a good weekend everyone!
