When Knitting Was a Manly Art

Spring Continues

Well, the snow was kind of no-show for us. Coast Range got a bit and we drove up into snow yesterday afternoon, but, though the temperature is low - 35F this morning - nothing more than a light dusting this morning.

I need some variety and so I’ve pulled the Lotus Blossom shawl out of storage and restarted working on it. The Moebius is going kind of slow and I’m bored with the pattern. Love the yarn and the way it’s working up, but another project to change gears on is what I need right now.

Still no Gansey yarn and still no reply to my email from the vendor. Getting pissed.

I’m really surprised you haven’t received your yarn, too.
I bought some of your shares on blogshares. Can’t wait for them to rise in value. (I know they will!)

Yep, not a happy camper over the yarn.. And the vendor is supposed to have a terrific reputation. I’m going to try emailing her again this evening.

Blogshares… Great price too. Can’t beat $0/share. If this were a popularity contest, I’d be embarrased…

LOL! I just had my first buyer (also $0), so you’re still winning that race.

I just saw that you “bought” some of my stock. Thanks! Any clue why your link doesn’t show up on my outgoing/incoming links?
Still trying to figure this out!

Great price —-

Hang on until Monday. The new bot is slowly working it’s way through all the registered URLs and the expectation is that all will be well on Monday.

Every row *starts* with a yarn-over. Bring the needle up and under the yarn before I knit the first stitch.
