This afternoon, Emily told me that “Gino” is her favorite boy in the class because he’s very nice. Then she told me he was cute. Later, while looking in the yearbook at her class pictures, she imitated his voice and said, “Hi, I’m Gino! I love Emily!”
Note to self: keep an eye on this “Gino” boy.
Hats up next for Illinois, Utah, and Tennessee.
This weekend, I took a two-day workshop sponsored by the Charlotte Knitting Guild. It was taught by Merike Saarniit of Liisu yarns. With the browser crash that ate my post the first time I tried to write this, the sparkling text has been wrung right out of me. Therefore, I’ll just pass along my husband’s “witty” comment, repeated over the entire week: “I have to laugh every time you say you’re going to learn how to die in the microwave.”
Day one was dyeing yarn, day two was knitting with hand-dyed yarn, emphasizing using contrasting yarns and stitch patterns that may help reduce pooling. A good time was had by all!
