Kid & Ewe

Ok, I’m off to go pet llamas and buy yarn that I really don’t need. Yeah! Kid and Ewe and Llamas, too - it’s no Rhinebeck, but it’s all that Texas has. It’s in Bourne, TX, which I found out yesterday is pronounced “Bernie.” (an aside: when I first moved to MA, it took me way longer than it should have to realize that Worcester==”Wista”). I’m off to the wild west in about an hour, woo!

I’ve started yet another holiday project for the road - socks for Rob’s dad, Thuja-inspired this time. I’m knitting these with the Mountain Colors Bearfoot that I purchased recently. It is very hairy. I forgot how hairy mohair is. I’m putting in some major car travel time, so hopefully I can belt these out pretty quickly.

Since I have no other knitting excitement today, I leave you with a non-blurry photo of Joe:

    Awwww - he is so cute in the sunlight!! So fluffy!

    Even now, as a joke I pronounce it “Wore-Chesta” sometimes…such a weird name for a city…

    :) Have fun with the llamas!

    Kelly,
    Hope you are recovering from KnE. I found the pattern online that I told you about for the Tasha’s shawl - it calls for 800 yds of heavy worsted - I don’t know what weight was your BFY but if this pattern won’t work, another one will.

    I had a lot of fun, hope to see you guys again soon.
