I know I promised…
I wouldn’t let you knit the crazy, but Heidi is offering herself on a silver platter. Oh to be a good friend to both of you right now is SO HARD! Decisions, decisions!
Be the first on your block...
Kimberly: Is that a SKIRT? AN INSIDE OUT SKIRT?
Me: It's a knit skirt that they made INSIDE OUT! I would not joke about this. The seams and tag are on the right side.
Kimberly: How much?
Me: Did not check that. I was too distracted by the make of this skirt. It comes in other colors too...
Kimberly: Where in the holy heck was this?
Me: TARGET
Kimberly: omg I feel like we need to pool our resources and buy them all then take a cruise and throw them to the bottom of the deepest ocean!
Me (to Dena): How much was that skirt at Target?
Dena: When I looked at them, price was no object. The price can never be low enough for me to buy one.
Kimberly: If I had more disposible income I would go buy one to run in just to make Mel and you laugh.
Me: Kimberly, not even on a bet. I would pee my pants though!
Kimberly: We may need a field trip to target to try on this skirt with the bad ass socks.
Me: Tomorrow after running!
Dena: Pigtails are a must.
Kimberly: I was thinking more like lunch. Those skirts are going to fly off the racks!
Dena (in commercial voice): 'Does your ass look too small? We have the solution for you!'
Kimberly: LMAO, oh my god!
Dena: 'People will know you've got an ass!'
Kimberly: I'm writing my letter to Santa now asking for this skirt.
Dena: The jingle for my commercial...'I like big butts and I cannot lie!'
Kimberly: I'm going to choreograph this!
Those darned swallows eating the cherry crop is very upsetting.
I think those of us who benefit from your canning should band together to knit a net to protect the future crops… Functional yarn bombing…

Miss Julia? Is that you?
In 19th-century Iceland, as a motivator to get people to work hard and use up all of the autumn wool, folklore held that each person needed to receive at least one new knitted garment each Christmas—or suffer the wrath of the Yule Cat, a large, vicious, and cruel feline who would come and eat them.

‘Center Pull’
‘Most yarn comes in an alleged center-pull ball so you can pull it from the inside rather than the outside of the skein. This is terrific, because it keeps yarn from rolling around while you work with it. I say “alleged,” because the reality is that no matter how hard you try, about 90 percent of these balls won’t let you actually “center-pull” without grossly ejecting a tangled secondary ball of yarn from their middle. I have no proof, but I think this is a yarn company joke.’
