Now, on to business. Well, Dogwood Donna is now underway, as is my Very First Pair of Socks!
How about some gratuitous yarn porn?
First is a birthday package for my good friend Laura in Mississippi. She's recently started knitting, but has only been able to purchase yarn at Wal-Mart. That needed to be rectified. So her mother enlisted my help in finding her good yarn. I sent her two balls of Berroco Keltic, one ball of Knit One Crochet Too Ty-Dy, and two balls of Noro Hotaru.
And second is the yarn that Becky gave me, apparently just because. Three hanks of dyed fisherman's wool from Beaverslide Dry Goods, a family-owned business in Montana. The wheels in my strange little head are already turning...I get to keep the basket, too. Thank you so much, Becky.
This past Friday, I knit in public for the very first time. I was taking the train to see my brother's play, and wouldn't you just know it, I sat next to a knitter. Her name is Maxine and she gave me a 20 year old afghan pattern--she's knit 25 of them and was working on a baby blanket version on the train.
That's pretty much all I can think of at the moment....Maybe I'll go drink an exspresso.

I love the card for your mom, it was hysterical. My kids kind of sound like the teacher on Charlie Brown. Wa Wa Wa?
I have some green yarn, like the blue I gave you, and the gauge is just right for the CPH.
