Rachel’s Adventures in Life and Knitting

April 3, 2007 · 1 Comment

I still have not found my camera cord, so no pictures as of yet. Maybe I will borrow Amanda’s camera and take some. Also, once Amanda posts, I will put up pictures from the excitement this weekend that was THE YARN HARLOT! Yes! I met my knitting idol (yes, I have a knitting idol). She came, I knit re-knit an entire calorimetry whilst waiting, Amanda, Jenni, and I gave her chocolate, she took our picture when I told her that my boyfriend and I broke up the day before (forgot to mention that, my arse insensitive ohsolovely now ex-boyfriend decided to come over at 3am on Friday night, when I was sleeping, and I decided that that was the last straw). Keep an eye on her blog, I might have my picture on it. She also complimented me on my tank top *that I knit* and I am nearly positive that I made a fool of myself thanking her/speaking to her at all. The poor woman had been up since 3:30 in the morning, flown from Cleveland to Chicago to Detroit and then back to Chicago due to fog in Detroit. She finally hopped a plane to Detroit and arrived two and a half hours late with a stranger she had met on the plane. Quite an adventure, I’m sure. It was a ton of fun, however, and I can’t wait until I get pictures to prove that it all even happened!

Now I need to do some school work and get back to reading Arthur A. Miller’s Death of a Salesman for class.

Happy Passover!

    It was really nice to meet you.

    It occured to me that I forgot to ask you which flavor of Noro that was. I can guess it is a wool free flavor but I couldn’t remember if you told me exactly which one it was.

    There was too much yarn stimulation in the room.
