1. She is fine with me calling her a hairdresser (this is what my mom calls herself), stylist, or hair lady. She’s fabulously easygoing and I love having people like that in my life.

2. She’s cool with me knitting A LOT and she’ll talk knitting with me even though I have not yet converted her to the cult.


3. She’s hilarious and certainly cheaper than therapy.

4. She’s part magician. Sometimes I wish I had a little elf version of her to fix my hair in the mornings.

5. She’s a really good sport when I ask her to take photos for my blog!

…is a week long and begins today.

I’m going to attempt to knit in public a little bit each day and will report back on my progress. Do you have plans for Public Display of Knitting?

TH (the husband) and I went to see Snow White and the Huntsman. We got there early so we could get our preferred seats. And I brought a sock to work on….one of TH’s plain black socks I could work on by feel. Which was true if, after not working on it for over a week, I remembered correctly that the leg was 1×1 ribbing. I knit a couple of rounds and tried to verify the ribbing pattern matched using the light of my cell phone during the pre-previews. hmmm. not sure that’s right, but I’ll just keep going. Three rows later, this really doesn’t feel or look right even in the dark and I pull out the pattern and read that it should be 2×2 rib.
Oh.
Yea.
That sounds familiar. The other pair of socks I’m working on is 1×1 rib. So, I start unknitting. Turns out, I can do that in the dark too, which might mean that I unknit way way too much.
