Once upon a Thursday, I was trying to figure out if Sea Cell would be an ok sock yarn component (survey says no) and I was able to welcome an ipad owner that was surfing Ravelry in my LYS to Texas. She just moved here and I can say that I am glad she did….although I think at some point, I might have to find something I can knit with Sea Cell. The idea of knitting with seaweed is just too inviting – weird things hold appeal for me.

Oh, and I fell down and bought yarn. It is Lorna’s Laces Solemate and Cascade Heritage Silk. One day, these hanks will grow up to be lovely socks.

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?
