Because not everybody thinks about yarn 24/7



This is an actual made-up conversation DD and I almost had on our way up to the dentist this afternoon:

Me: Cool! Look at those clouds! That group looks just like roving. Quick! Grab my phone and take a picture.

DD: What? Take a picture of what? What the hell is roving?


This is a photo she took on our way home, actually, and no the clouds didn't look like roving anymore.

  7. I had a great time at a recent knit night watching my male (nonknitter) friend try to work out what different knitting terms might mean. Priceless.

  9. Hahaha! Too funny..!

    Glad to hear I am not the only one thinking about yarn/fiber 24/7... From the moment I wake up, to the moment I shut my eyes to sleep, I think of yarn.

    Oh wait, I even dream about it. And some people are convinced I knit in my sleep...

  10. Whenever I admire things lately in stores, one of my daughters will say, "You could make that." You've got to love that kind of faith, no matter how misplaced it is :-)

    PS. There's gotta be something wrong with people who don't think about yarn!!!

  13. Totally cracked me up!...the whole conversation, the picture...too fun.

    Appreciated your suggestion about a knit stitch book...can't wait to get my hands on one. Life's been crazy and now the computer is having attitude problems. :) But then, it's always *something*.
