Sad Etsy Boyfriends

The Sad Etsy Boyfriend website:  We must take a pact to never subject a loved one to this!

Mary knows one of the editors of this new online knitting magazine:  Clotheshorse Magazine.

Mardi Gras Knitting!

We discussed Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes (that hussy).

The book of the week is White Truffles in Winter.

This scarf is similar to the one Martha is knitting.  However, Martha's is bellissimo.  I am having my own battles with this pattern.  We better hope that blocking will cure all!

And...if we can't knit for Ryan Gosling, we can always knit something for any of the young men on My Daguerreotype Boyfriend.  We know they appreciate wool.

Who Knew...there was a yarn store in Center Sandwich?

While attending the State Middle School Nordic Meet in Center Sandwich, I visited this store.  They had Peace Fleece, Noro, and some of their own in lovely hues.

And the trophy went to Rundlett Middle School girls!  Best in the State.

Rules of Civility by Amor Towles

Suellen recommended this book.  I have it out of the Concord Public Library.  Put yourself on the waiting list.  It is wonderful.
