Knitters' Knight Out! :)

Ok...that's bad. However, I decided that I simply HAD to get out of this place (between the boxes, the smoke, and the pressure of knowing how much more there is to pack, I do NOT enjoy being home these days...).

My dear SIL has taken off for warmer climes for a few days, and so Red Hats monthly dinner wasn't something I really wanted to do. Our regularly scheduled RV Spinner/Knitter evening had been "snowed out" (not - it was supposed to snow, just didn't), so we set tonight as a make-up. Well there were 9 of us - a GREAT group, tho' we did miss you Robin and IndigoMuse!

Pam was so sweet to gift me with this...just 'cause!

That's STR Rooster Rock, and she even had it all wound up! (This is a big thing as I do not have a ball winder or swift yet...) Red Rooster was one of about 6 colorways of STR that I have on my list to get, so I am just delighted!

Thank you, Pam! I will hope to have this OTN by the April meeting (the two pair I'm knitting will be done by then, but not by our March 1 meeting in two weeks!).

And, um, tomorrow? Back to our regularly scheduled PACKING!
(((Hugs)))

Great yarn! That will be fun to knit.

Every time I have moved, I am always amazed at how many boxes I need. It never looks like I have that much stuff until I start putting it in boxes.

Good luck!

Your STR is BEAUTIFUL! That's a wonderful gift!

I'm so glad that you got out and had a good time. I'm hoping that your packing goes quickly and easily and that your move is to the perfect place for you.

Fabulous friend with such a matching gift! Cannot wait to see which pattern you will use for yours. Now that I have 2 STR hanks in RI Red I hope to knit up some knee-high stockings!

Namaste

I honor the place in you,

which is of love, truth, light, and peace.

When you are centered in that place in you,

and I am centered in that place in me,

we are one.
