ribbon 28 June 2011
And so, there is a reward for the new obsession Chez McLynn – Himself has ‘won’ a blue ribbon for posting travel related reviews on his favourite site. High excitement indeed! Now, of course, the wonder is are there other colours he could achieve. When will he get the Best in Show rosette? In other words, this has merely fuelled the obsession…no end or ‘cure’ in sight there.
For myself, I have been reminded over these last days of the truth (universally acknowledged) that cats and knitting are a perfect mix for mischief. I am road testing simple patterns for beginners to go in a buke and efforts are being hampered by the furries and their great delight at dancing bamboo needles and jumping yarn. and suer enough there are some stray black and grey hairs posing as mohair in a cotton beanie hat on the needles at the moment, a texture I had not been trying for or planning. I’m ‘embracing’ it, having little other option…it’s their house, their rules now…
