The interns have left, racking up 12 miles of yarn winding. Reports from Chicago indicate they picked up their knitting when they got home and are busy churning out scarves for their bunny collection. I miss them every time I have to wind yarn. That was a luxury to have someone on standby to do it for me.
While the interns (nephews Elvis and Van) were here we visited Zane, just two days shy of his first birthday. We delivered his present, which included the pictured Party Time! Hat. Pretty darling on the world's cutest one year old! Thanks for a great pattern, Audrey. Fun to knit and fun to wear!
Barely rested from the 8-year olds 10-day visit, I had to ramp up for Speed Dating! Thanks to Bonnie and Nancy for lightening that load. Of course, it was blistering hot, but we sampled silk and other lovely yarns to distract us. 9 yarns, 10 minutes each. Turns out that's all the time you need to decide if 1) you never want to see that yarn again, 2) you'd definitely consider a second date, or 3) you just want to take it home with you now! Everyone seemed to find something in the 3) category. More pics online.
