I was at the pharmacy today and admired–out loud–the beautiful handknit shawl in muted plums the woman next to me was wearing. The yarn was clearly hand dyed, and I asked her, Madeline Tosh?
Another knitter! She was thrilled. We ended up sitting down together and talking lace shawls, parting reluctantly only because she had to leave for her doctor’s appointment.
And to add a total non sequitur that is close to my heart, remembering that opossum: please. Make sure you’re all the way awake before you try to chase marauding wildlife away from your birdfeeders.
