A Needle in a Wool Stack

I HATE when I can’t find a set of needles that I need. I bought 3 balls of Opal sock wool last year, along with Ashford Bamboo DPNs to knit the socks with. I had cast on a few times and didn’t like the way they were coming out, so I frogged it and put the wool away. So now that I am finally getting around to socks, could I find those nice new bamboo DPNs? Of course not!

I looked:

• in the bag with the sock wool
• in all FIVE baskets of yarn
• In the basket next to my spot on the couch
• in the basket under the table in the lounge
• in the craft room, NOT

And I looked in all those places multiple times. I KNEW I had put them with the sock wool, but they were no where to be found. I am a very cluttered person, but there really is method to my madness. Honest!

So, today, I sat down on the floor next to my dust-collectiing wool collection and had a glance at those balls of sock wool. This is what I saw.

Do you see them too? Figures! As soon as I bought a new set, the old ones literally *popped* up. Oh well. I guess I can knit two different socks at once now, huh?!

A Sign!!!!

Oh my.  Here I am. Finally.

I knew that today had to be the day to get this blog going.  I received a sign.  A good one at that.  It told me to quit being chicken.

What was the sign you ask?  Oh, my lunch of course!  See for yourself.

Do you see it too?

Oh good, then I really am not going nuts.

Glad to have you here with me. 😀
